College Basketball ver Do Wedzenia Krzyzewski

For the first time in 20 years, Bill Self will return to Champaign, Illinois, to help raise money for the victims of the Maui fires.

Self, who has not coached a game in Champaign since he left Illinois for Kansas in 2003, will lead the Jayhawks, No. 1 in ESPN's Way Too Early Top 25 rankings, against the Fighting Illini, the schools announced on Friday.

The exhibition - the NCAA allows teams to play exhibitions for charity with a waiver - will be held at the State Farm Center on Oct. 29 and air on the Big Ten Network. The proceeds will go toward the Maui Strong Fund.

The two schools had originally planned to hold a closed scrimmage before the season but decided to turn the event into a public exhibition to raise money for Maui.
 
Coach Kim Mulkey, who led the LSU women's basketball team to the NCAA title in April, has agreed to terms with the school on a new 10-year contract worth $32 million, sources confirmed to ESPN. The deal must still be approved by the LSU board of supervisors, which meets on Friday.

When finalized, Mulkey's $32 million deal will be the richest total contract in women's college basketball history.
 
Kansas coach Bill Self has signed an amended five-year contract, set up to be effectively a lifetime deal that makes him the highest-paid coach in college basketball.

Self, 60, will make more than $13 million in compensation for the 2023-24 season and $53 million over the next five years, a number that includes $7.2 million in salary previously deferred due to COVID-related economic challenges. Kentucky's John Calipari was previously the highest-paid coach in the country; he will earn $44 million over the next five years, sources told ESPN.
 
Caitlin Clark/Iowa and Va Tech were able to sell out a neutral site game in Charlotte where both teams got a 150k payout. 44 points from Clark and she didn’t even shoot that well by her standards from three.

I'm not sure how they ended up in Atlantis. There's usually one mid major but typically it's been one that's made some moves in March the year or two before, i.e. Loyola, Buffalo, Dayton. We're going on year 8 since UNI last made the tournament.
