HOUSTON — Before the NCAA Tournament, Dusty May said a new contract with Florida Atlantic probably would have been completed and signed if he hadn’t been “too busy” coaching the team.
Nothing’s changed after the team’s improbable run to the Final Four raised his national profile. The deal is expected to be “north of $1 million” per year, a source said.
“I learned a long time ago you never mess with happy,” May said Friday. “And so I know what makes me happy, and right now at this point in my career I couldn’t be any more pleased and happy with where we are and just continue to — just excited to continue building.
