I had heard he had a year left on his contract and was not likely to be canned. I reckon they decided it was time, and it probably was
I heard Citadel coach had a year left also and he will probably be back next year
This was the final year of the 5-year contract Cit gave Baucom in March of 2015. I'd be surprised if he was offered a new one. Actually...I'd be shocked.
FWIW, Bulldog fans saying he has one more year on his contract. There was also this point on their fan forum.
“I was at the Charleston Citadel club breakfast yesterday morning. The AD was asked about the basketball team. He talked about how young the team was and all the injuries. Then he said that Dugger, "will be coaching for his job this next season." Though I think everyone on this board knows this I think since he said that in public he and Dugger have had that discussion.”
Must have been a single-year extension signed at some point. He signed a 5-year, $180K a year, contract in March of 2015. This past season was his 5th at Cit.
Yes. From P&C. “ Baucom’s contract
Citadel basketball coach Duggar Baucom signed a five-year contract when he was hired in 2015, a deal set to expire on April 30, 2020.
Not reported at the time: The contract also included an automatic one-year extension that kicked in after Baucom’s first season, extending the deal to April 30, 2021, and making it in effect a six-year contract.
″... Should coach remain employed by Institution as head coach of varsity basketball on April 30, 2016, the term of his contract shall automatically extend until April 30, 2021,” reads the contract, signed by former athletic director Jim Senter.
Baucom has a record of 51-91 in his fifth season, including a 16-60 mark in Southern Conference play. He’s the first Citadel coach with double-digit wins in his first four seasons since Pat Dennis started his tenure with six seasons of double-digit wins in 1992-98.”
