Ken McDonald will remain at Western Kentucky - even if it’s not the most popular decision at the moment. A week after finishing a tumultuous 2010-11 season with a 16-16 record, WKU athletic director Ross Bjork - along with McDonald - were slated to have a noon news conference today at E.A. Diddle Arena to announce the return of McDonald and staff, and publicly lay out a map for the Hilltopper basketball program.
McDonald will return to WKU, but will take a pay cut. The third-year coach will receive a new four-year deal that pays him a base salary of $250,000 - $100,000 less than he had been earning over the past two seasons.
Bjork signed what Bjork described as the highest rated recruiting class in WKU history for the 2011 season.
