Huds Pay, how much NOW? Louisiana assistants pay, how much NOW?

[DaddyCajun]

Just wondering, J-Bird, Boomer, Cajun-T, Z, Turbine, how much if at all will Hud's pay and/or his assistants will GEAUX up, and will Hud's contract be reworked/extended?

[Boomer]

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!!!

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...

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

Chief, this OC is one of the brightest football minds, in...... football.

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).
