Coach Jordan's contract was re-structured into a 5 year deal. To quote him from the Sun News today, "I have turned down more money elsewhere because I feel like this is home and I don't have the desire to do a rebuilding project elsewhere," Jordan said. "Plus we haven't reached our potential yet".
This was possibly the best news we've gotten in a long time. We knew that it was time for NMSU to take a look at his contract and keep him here so we were a little nervous that someone else might dangle a little bit more dinero to get him to leave. Seeing his loyalty to NMSU and the program, as well as NMSU's dedication to the program and to him, is the best Christmas present ever to a volleyball addict. (I did see Dr Boston at the womens volleyball game vs. UTEP and I thanked him for keeping Mike here. He laughed. I think he knew there might be a revolt if Mike left.)
Today, the team takes on LSU at 3:30pm. There is no video (don't feel bad, Hawaii doesn't have video either) but you can listen to it live on AM 570. If you're out of town, you can listen to the broadcast via Aggie Access at nmstatesports.com. Why no video? Read Sam Wasson's article over at Bleed Crimson for the explaination. Thanks a bunch, UT.
We're having a listen party here at Casa Brooks and I'll do my best to update as I can. If I'm not updating here, I'll be doing it at Crimson Storm for the boys stuck at work.
GO AGGIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
