Lutz contract update

Here is a short update on contract negotiations between UNC Charlotte officials and 49ers men's basketball coach Bobby Lutz.

Information recently shared with me indicates high level people in the Charlotte 49ers athletic department and school administration expect Lutz to sign an extension and they hope to have it done by March 1 or earlier.

Now, whether it gets done by then or the terms are amiable to both sides remains to be seen. But right now, everything remains on track to get the deal done. There are no current roadblocks or slow downs or other delays. However, remember, this process only got underway last week.
