Unless PC runs the table rest of the ooc games, that would suck for the league.

I believe 10 years left on his deal puts him just behind Cal, in terms of job security in college basketball.
Is there any language in the deal as far as a buyout? I doesn't sound like it.

The stakes were high for Providence College. Ed Cooley is the public face of the college and it was critical that the college keep him when Big Ten powerhouse University of Michigan came knocking to hire him to be their new basketball coach.
It is big business. Michigan’s athletic program generates the fourth most revenue of any college programs in America — $185,173,187 annually.
Now, Cooley after a second contract extension in three years, is slated to earn between an estimated $30 and $40 million over the course of his new contract with Providence College -- estimated to be 10 years.
