Underwood Extended

Three year extension, modest salary increases, retains all assistants through 2022 with nice raises.

I really wish we still had the old board to watch the reactions.

I thought Antigua was in trouble, but good news, we need some freakin stability in this program, and I hope Underwood keeps the recruiting going well

Not that I would have necessarily extended him now, but who else's money is any AD supposed to "give away?"

Where is BReal when you need him? Probably eating cheese and watching Packer highlights.

Yeah, I was pretty much as happy to see Antigua got extended as Underwood. BU likes it here and I don’t think he was a big risk to jump. With all the rumors about Antigua, I thought he might be gone. Such a relief.

Good moves. Quite a turnaround this year, he has buy in, and recruiting going well.
A tourney appearance with a win or two and we will be on right track.

I don't really like the timing or the length of it, but modest increases probably aren't going to harm anything.

Kinda feel the same way. Like it was kind of out of nowhere and extremely aggressive.

On second thought pulling the trigger now that we’ve solidified an NCAA bid and recruiting is going well  it probably makes sense.

If he hadn’t been extended and the team stumbles at the end of the season here or has a disappointing tourney showing it kind of muddies the water a little bit.

Can we get a show of hands for people who would take Dave Leitao over Underwood?

How much more can you extend him? He’s already such a “BIG DICK GUY!”
