BREAKING NEWS: PAINTER TO MIZZOU?

E-mails on 3/28/11

Well, 15 minutes ago the first reporter called it.  Dick Weiss says Painter agrees to terms with Mizzou on a 7 year $14 mill contract.  Weiss works for the New York Daily News, has been covering college basketball for 40 years, and is a member of the USBWA college basketball writers' Hall of Fame.

Alden had a public event tonight with some boosters.  Looked happy.  When asked dodged the question and said "things progressing really well" in regards to the search.  Said "we won't rush things."

I'm not calling it yet, but I'm 80% sure we've got him.  More to come as it develops.
