Hey Arnold!

Title was based on the TV cartoon show not really randomly yelling out someone's name.

Although we can talk about University of Hawaii's men's basketball coach Gib Arnold and his initial talks with athletic director Ben Jay about extending his contract after 2014. Arnold is entering season 4 and I can't help but wonder why Jay should extend his contract for more than two years. I think since Jay hasn't been here a full academic year and haven't seen the men's team play, he should give Arnold not one year but a two year extension and negotiate extending his contract after that in 2015. AD Jay should take in consideration his overall record which at least is over .500(52-44). You can't give a coach a one year extension and expect him to bring in solid recruits because now days unless the recruit is 4 or 5 stars they want to be at a school knowing the coach will be there for a couple of years.
