    It will be interesting to hear how much he could have gotten at Drake if he did go (you all know someone will write a story about it.) I bet it's more than what usd will now be paying him. We're all sure he didn't want to leave but knew this was an opportunity to get a pay raise. Ultimately, he likes where he is at for now.
    Number floating around $350,000 (Drake job).

      Honestly, Smith staying in the Summit is good for the league. He's a good coach imho.

        Agree completely, good to see him staying. USD will be tough next year.

        A comment was made earlier that MVC without WSU is like the Summit but with better facilities, but that gap is closing. There are new facilities at NDSU, USD, and UNO and SDSU will soon join the list with an updated Frost.

          There is always the peter principle, which told him to stay put, and get some more experience before moving up. The Drake job?????? lots of questions and few answers.

              Sorry to ask this, but some of you are saying "pulled an AJ" but I'm unsure of when AJ almost left but didn't (although I'm sure he's had opportunities to leave multiple times.) Could someone please enlighten me on this event? You can send me a private message if you don't want to drift too far from this thread.

                  From what I remember, AJ changed his mind en route because he decided he didn't want to leave - I don't think he was still negotiating with SDSU for more money at that point. It sounds like Smith was using taking the Drake job as a negotiating tool, which I don't have a problem with, but makes his situation slightly different than AJ's. AJ probably got a raise as a result, but I don't think he was demanding it to stay here. If I am wrong on this, someone please correct me.

                    When this all went down 10 years ago, I was given the impression that SDSU sweetened the deal to keep AJ. I suspect there are others that post to this board with more details then I can provide. I don't think it's relevant in any way to this case just something to discuss.

                        All I was referring to was the "He's gone! Oh, wait, he's not!" aspect of the episodes.

                            Why respond truthfully? Their fanbase and beat reporters are blissfully ignorant. No tough questions have ever been asked of Herbster.
