IMHO, I think Buzz is at Tech as long as
he gets along with Whit Babcock, the administration, and feels spiritually and emotionally fulfilled. Buzz doesn't seem like the kind of guy who would leave if the other side lives up to his expectations.
I realize other universities and maybe the NBA will eventually offer him a job with more money and better perks, but I doubt he takes a new job just 2 years at Tech. I can see Buzz being here for at least 5 to 7 years. Numerous coaches have said that they experience the "7 year coaching itch" and move on to another program for a fresh start. Just from what I've seen and heard of Buzz, he's here for a while.
Buzz and his wife are building a new home in the Blacksburg area. I have been told that Buzz and his family love the area. I'm sure that Whit will do all he can to keep Buzz here if he gets a great offer from another school. I have a feeling Buzz will be making more than $2.6 million per season in a few years. Every school that has a quality coach has to do that. Buzz left New Orleans because the program was a financial mess and left Marquette because he simply didn't see eye-to-eye with the AD and didn't know what to expect from the new president. Right now, Buzz is getting along with everyone and vice versa.
