I'm not a Laker fan, but...

There may be some small reason to like them if they are your favorite NBA team and you like the Utes.  According to Ric Bucher of ESPN the Magazine on ESPN.com, Boylen is going to be hired by the Lakers as an assistant which means that the U will owe him less money.  The $2,000,000 buyout will be reduced by the amount of his contract with the Lakers.  While I'm sure he's not making a ton, every bit helps and we need all the money we can get since we have the smallest athletic budget BY FAR in the PAC-12 at $31,000,000 per year.  I believe that Washington State is the next closest at $39,000,000.  To put it in perspective, Stanford is first at $81,000,000 followed by USC at $75,000,000.  Those TV revenues can't come soon enough.
