Re: Huds Pay, how much NOW? Louisiana assistants pay, how much NOW?
Things to think about---The base and assistants' base----the number of staff----Bonuses---outside revenue----wife's benefits---incorporation to Texas to not have Louisiana state income tax----Silent partner in outside business interests---House/condo in Florida--------Now I expect this board to fill in the blanks on this but This is Boomer's package to keep coaches!!!

Re: Huds Pay, how much NOW? Louisiana assistants pay, how much NOW?
I was asking this same question last night.
HUD met all of his incentives this year right?
- Attendance
- Conference Championship
- Bowl Game/Win
I believe Mr. Hudspeth earned $1,000,000 last year.
Not a bad year...

Re: Huds Pay, how much NOW? Louisiana assistants pay, how much NOW?
I believe we under count attendance numbers so we fall short of his incentives.
HUD's salary is fine where it is this year, stand firm on that base with slightly larger incentives or add a large lump sum into his "longevity annuity" that he collects in three more years.
The biggest concern is raising the assistants salary.

.
I don't buy this.
I rememnber reading his incentive was to average 20k fans/game.

Please up the salary of the OC to $1 million to buy a person who does not call the same plays in the same sequence over and over!!!!!

Great idea...pay the OC more than the head coach, wonder why nobody has ever thought of that

You think so? I don't, I believe our play calling skills are to be desired, look how confused we were when Tulane started blitzing

I think our playcalling is, for the most part, fine. I think our execution is sometimes lacking when it comes to where we throw the ball. We missed Harry Peoples a lot this season. His presence gave us a relief from the "all or nothing" mentality of going for deep throws all the time because he was good for 8-10 yards any time you wanted it. He elongated drives and made our offense more steady. I'm hoping that the addition of the receivers (and offensive linemen) we have committed for our 2014 class will bring that stability back to our offense, and also bring back more of the bubble screens that we employed so well in 2012 (and had employed against us, unfortunately).

A healthy Broadway should be able to hit a hot receiver when there is non stop blitzing. No doubt he was limited. One on one on the outside receivers down the field leaves receivers all over the place open. This is basic football 101, and for whatever reason we are not doing it. So Johnson is not the problem.

Re: Huds Pay, how much NOW? Louisiana assistants pay, how much NOW?
I think the offense has been fine the past two seasons.
Defense on the other hand...especially the secondary. AND, I said it in one thread about a month ago and will say it again. We LOVE Justin Anderson. Dude played with as much heart as anyone and made HUGE plays on defense for us this season. His game at WKU was top notch and was maybe the sole reason we won.
However, that Tampa 2 style is dependent upon the MLB being able to take away the middle of the field in pass defense. When the Bucs were at their best, they had a slender, agile and fast Shelton Quarles taking away the middle of the field. If we are going to keep the Tampa 2 style where CBs bail up the field and Safeties provide that over the top protection, we need genuine speed at MLB.

Does Tyren Alexander fit that mold?

I would love to see us play the Tampa 2 and get after it! Hell I would love to see us play the defense that Tulane ran against us!

He might. I only say that because I don't follow the team as closely as others on here, especially when it comes to high school recruits. Everything I've read about him is he's the athletic type.
I'm certainly not a defensive coordinator, though, nor do I care to even pretend to play one on a message board. I'm just giving my opinion based on the type of hard-nosed, grinding player Anderson has been and comparing that to the types of LBs in the NFL I've seen be most successful for the Tampa 2 scheme, which appears to be what we're trying to run here.

It seems like we've been playing some form of it, which can explain for the safeties being deep and close to the sidelines when the opposition continues to throw slants and crosses, successfully, over the middle. But...every coach has their wrinkles within a system/philosophy. Just like other coaches have employed the West Coast with MUCH LESS success than Bill Walsh and Mike Holmgren, the same for defensive philosophies. Hell, look at how Montie Kiffen's system (the inventor of the "Tampa 2") has faired in Dallas.

Re: Huds Pay, how much NOW? Louisiana assistants pay, how much NOW?
All schemes require the right players for the scheme. Remember the Flex for the Dallas Cowboys in the early and middle Landry years. Bob Lilly gets old, and the Flex was no more.
In the pros you choose your players to suit your scheme, in college you try to recruit the right guys, but often a good coach has to change what he does best to what the players do best.
What my comment has to do with pay? I have no idea.

Re: Huds Pay, how much NOW? Louisiana assistants pay, how much NOW?
Did brockmeaux mention that Harry peoples played this season and no one caught that?
-
Re: Huds Pay, how much NOW? Louisiana assistants pay, how much NOW?
fellas, Terrance is a warrior... But lets not act like he improved form the end of last year. Truth is , he has not. He locked in on one receiver all season while others were wide open. I just hope he takes off from where he left off in 2012, not 2013.
-
Re: Huds Pay, how much NOW? Louisiana assistants pay, how much NOW?
My point was.....too predictable play calling no matter what the circumstances.
Just realized, I'm watching other bowl games, needing my Cajun football fix & nothing for many months.....;(

Re: Huds Pay, how much NOW? Louisiana assistants pay, how much NOW?
agreed fais do-do.... perhaps the play calling was dictated by personnel issues?? yes, end of season sucks.. but pur 23 rd ranked baseballers are on deck!!!

Re: Huds Pay, how much NOW? Louisiana assistants pay, how much NOW?
My only concern about the offense was the propensity of throwing a pick just before half time. How many times that happened this year? Sadly, it happened enough where I called the one in the NOLA bowl.

May be smart, but come on, if teams a blitzing you, UL has to let their TE's bump and release the DE/LB and toss it over the top to him! Or use your dang slot receiver on a 5 yard slant route over the middle, etc. Do not understand WHY UL stopped using the TE's, I understand our Slot was no where nere like last year, but our TE's were more than capable!!!

Re: Huds Pay, how much NOW? Louisiana assistants pay, how much NOW?
damn good point... our TE's were forgotten.. like i posted earlier, TB locked in on Robinson and surgent if jamal wasn't in the game
