There is no way I will read this entire thread. Is there a cliffsnotes version of who is responsible for this?

I think it's important to note that it was $ for assistants not himself. Although incredibly, Robe is the highest paid baseball coach in the SBC and according to posts on this site Lotief is not in the top 3 for softball despite unparalleled success.

There is a big difference, Mike does not need the money. IMO The money that should be afforded to a coach of his caliber should be diverted to his assistants.

Need or not. It's embarrassing that our head coach...the person leading the only national level program we have...is paid less than some assistants at other SBC programs. That's just shameful.

With all due respect "need" is a personal decision and should be off-limits for an employer to use as leverage when trying to devalue the employee's real value.

That is true, but I think you missed my point. Mike should have demanded from the beginning that the salary that he should be receiving be diverted towards assistants. Much Like Charlie Lancon had done while he was the track coach here.

Is Farmer still on the NCAA softball selection committee? Wasn't he chairman last year? This will look good in front of all those people
