This is what UMASS needs- a billionaire that wants to put UMASS sports on the map! Anyone out there??? Holgerson's salary is $4M while his predecessor was making $1.75M. Interested to see if Brown works out. I thought Holgerson was perfect for WVU. WVU is a tough place to coach.

You mean like James Pallotta, billionaire co-owner of AS Roma and the Boston Celtics?

^ Pallotta is ours, but he seems more tied to his MBA from Northeastern, where he is a trustee.
"Jack didn’t have any envy in him," Calipari said. "He was the greatest coach to ever coach here."
