Rick Bennett gets a contract extension through 2022. They keep extending him and he will still be the coach 5 years after he's dead.
I'm not a fan of 7-year contracts. Too much can happen and the school can be locked into a bad situation. Besides, these deals tend to be one-sided in favor of the coach.

Winning a National championship cures all ills, at least in Schenectady.

Remember, the two coaches that won national titles at RPI also had some issues. That is often the case with successful people. They push the limits and sometimes cross the line, at least in the minds of some. It all depends on your priorities and motivations, but it is certainly much more difficult to run a successful executive out of an organization.

Let it go Louie. Let it go. One incident in an otherwise stellar career shouldn't taint the guy forever. Unfortunately, that is not always the case.
