Muschamp was coach in waiting...until something better came along. It means nothing, the term is non-binding. All assistants are "in-waiting"
I think the bonuses are dam near offensive in comparison to what that program accomplished this year. I get it, it's a bonus.....but just feels like they all deserve more.
Hopefully, the exposure really helps with the camps. It's my understanding that was a good revenue source for the assistants.
If I wanted my kid to get better at the plate...I know what camp I'm sending him to
"Drives the bus." I See what you did there
Wow...I wish I had your confidence. Coach Deggs is obviously more experienced than when he was at those other schools, very competitive and good at coaching baseball. He has been a head coach at the juco level, very successfully, I might add. I would be very surprised if he did not have career goals similar to Scefz and Simoneaux.
I wonder how much of that attendance is needed to run our program? Do we have things that other sunbelt schools don't? Do we spend more on recruiting, equipment, travel? Just thoughts to put out there.
If we fed our players PB&J like Ulmost we might be able to pay Robe more
You're right. I thought investing in premium seating and other enhancement would have been a better way to spend the money, and I don't know if I ever specifically mentioned baseball coaches salaries. But I did say on numerous occasions that I felt there were dozens of better ways to spend the money. And yes, I think paying to keep a great coach is certainly one of those ways.
But if our season ticket sales and full-season attendance increase dramatically this year, I'll be happy to come back and say I was wrong.
This is the same as professors griping about Hud's salary. The $6 million being spent on stadium expansion will generate millions in revenue over time. Paying an assistant coach $100,000 will not. Its been said over and over, football funds all of the other sports. Whether you like or not, agree with it or not, it is a fact. With the football stadium expansion, funds will be generated that will help all of the other programs. Saying that paying assistant coaches instead of expanding the stadium is bassackwards. Expand the stadium, generate revenue, THEN you can pay your coaches. If you skip the revenue generating part, and as you said "find funds" to pay coaches now, you will never get anywhere. You will ALWAYS be trying to "find funds". It's called an investment. Look it up.
