Was ECU really a step up from Gulf Coast for Dooley?

Seriously?

Let's see, he was making $275k in the Atlantic Sun and now he gets to share a conference with Cincinnati, UConn and other basketball powers with this contract (per the Naples Herald):

Dooley’s contract is a five-year deal with a base salary of $400,000, but other guarantees bring his annual take to $900,000 per year, reaching $1 million in 2022-23, along with incentive bonuses related to season ticket sales and team performance that could push that number higher.

I see that financially it makes sense, but he's leaving a successful basketball program for a program that has only two NCAA appearances, 0 NCAA wins, in a conference with high level programs that will use you as a punching bag, a program whose claim to fame is a CIT title...program-wise, it doesn't look like a step up from my seat.

Not only that, he's going back to a place where he was fired from before......

He almost quadrupled his salary and went from a one-bid league to a virtual power league.

No coach looks at a program and thinks "I can't succeed there." This is a no-brainer, just like it was for Groce and Christian when they bailed on us.
