He'll be around one more year definitely and get that 40th year in and i dont think Burton will be all that bad next year...but like i said it wouldnt surprise me if he stayed 3 more
$750,000 is a little bit less that Shupe gets. I really did hear that Wilson is trying to stay around long enough so that Campbell can get certified and take over.

How many Pall Malls are in a pack? Twenty? That is how many more years he will coach. Every time he lights up, he is that much closer to the Marlboro man.
Naw Spuds; Every single solitary one of them has died from lung cancer. There is a special section in Heaven for smokers. Lawrence Welk and hip hop music is piped in 24 hours a day. Taco Bell is the only resturant in that section. You are only allowed to drive Vegas and Pintos.............get the picture?
shhhh.
"To be the man, you've got to beat the man."
Odd timing...
"Once upon a time, the Marlboro Man rode alone on his horse across a rugged Western landscape.
Now, with smoking increasingly unpopular in the U.S. and Europe, he has to circle the globe to rustle up smokers. Look where he's been spotted in emerging markets:
The Marlboro Man is busy learning Chinese, preparing to win over an emerging middle class in China, the world's biggest cigarette market.
He's in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh, persuading workers with rising incomes to trade up from the lowly bidi, a popular smoke made from tobacco wrapped in a leaf, known for its fruity flavoring and potent kick.
In Mexico, he's greeting youngsters with a warm "Hola!" to build market share.
All of this will wind up being bad for the health of smokers in these parts of the world. But for investors, it's positive, particularly since the Marlboro Man's international sponsor, Philip Morris International (PM, news, msgs), was just spun off from U.S. cigarette maker Altria (MO, news, msgs).
Investors can now profit from a clean play on the all-but-guaranteed success of the Marlboro Man as he wins over emerging middle classes around the world.
"The U.S. has seen a secular erosion in cigarette sales, declining 2% to 4% a year, but that is not at all the case globally," says Charles Norton, the manager of the Vice Fund (VICEX), which owns shares of Philip Morris. "The world is a tremendous growth opportunity. Philip Morris has plenty of room to increase its market penetration internationally. There is a real growth story."
Besides wooing smokers around the globe, Philip Morris International plans to increase prices and cut costs. Soon it will buy back stock aggressively.
Together, these tactics should lift profits by 12% a year over the next five years, on annual sales growth of 4% to 5%. That's the forecast of Goldman Sachs (GS, news, msgs) analyst Judy Hong. She thinks these trends will drive this "must own" tobacco stock to $60 a share in a year. (The stock closed at $50 on Tuesday.)"
