Panthers keep their coach

Head coach of the Milwaukee Panthers, Bruce Pearl, has just signed a $1.5 million dollar contract to stay with Milwaukee for the next five years. He has a winning past with Milwaukee, having a 37-11 record in the Horizon league. He led the Panthers to the 2003 NCAA tournament, the 2004 NIT, the 2004 Horizon League title, and the 2003 conference tournament title. The panthers are hoping that their coach will once again lead them to another spectacular season in 2005.
