I don't think money will be Howland's main issue. I think it will be more about fit, relationship with the AD and control.

Market for Howland just got a lot more difficult. Wazoo just opened up.

But Howland's a Pacific NW guy (and West Coast). Don't know if he wants to come back east.

If you want to make a hire that allows you to win the quickest, you hire Ben Howland.
If you want to make a hire that gives the BOT and whalepants a tingling feeling run up their leg, you hire Amaker.

I will say...while he's not my first choice, I think we could do a lot worse.
