I want HUD to stay...

[CrazyCajun]

Hudspeth is making double what he's worth as a head coach. If he'd won an outright conference championship, or picked up some impressive signature wins over P5 teams, then he might have deserved a $million salary. As things stand today, he's worth about $500K. So no, Hudspeth isn't going anywhere. We overreacted when we extended his contract out as far as we did.

For the program, he has been worth way more than a million... You are worth what the market will bare, at the time he was offered 1.2 million for a job...so I'd say he is worth it. He is getting paid 1 million, so I'd say he is worth it. 1 down year with transitions, new staff and more injuries than we have had in a long time and now he isn't worth it. Hope you never have a down year at work, which I'm sure you won't being perfect and all.

You know what kills me?

There isn't a damn one of you on this board who questioned the big raise Hud got. Now you're criticizing that we overpaid......

All of you SCREAMED because you were afraid we might lose him. THAT'S why he got the big raise.

Quit being hypocrites.

I love this time of year Jay. This is when callers take to the air waves, & cry about the very things they were most proud of four months ago. What I'd like to do is take a poll of how many people would like be going to the New Orleans Bowl this year.

Very few are being hypocrites. I wanted to keep him by paying him the market demand. I am very demanding, however, about what we get for our money. And this year isn't an anomaly year until it has been corrected. Until then... it's raise hell with Hud time.

This was an informative thread for me, on what we can expect for a $1 mill per year coach.

You only came to one game this year. You went from being our biggest fan 4 years ago to being nonexistent. Get in line at the poll, Mr. Pollster!

I, for one, have not said we shouldn't be paying Coach Hud what we're paying him. I also want him as my coach. But now that we have stepped up and made him the highest paid SBC coach surrounded by quality facilities, is it out of line to at least question if we're getting our money's worth? With a substantial raise and substantial facility commitments should come increased expectations. If that is out of line, let us know so we can all just drop the issue.

Your not out of line here. Good post. If I had to guess, most people feel the same way.

That's a fair point and question. He shouldn't have any distractions or obligations to pull him away from his only focus... Fixing it. The APC is built and ready to be recruited with. He doesn't have to raise extra money to get it done right. The decision from infractions committee should come out before signing day. As much as we could use the practice of we were somehow to get a bowl through APR, it would be better to use that time to get a plan together with the staff. It sounds like excuses but this was almost a perfect storm, mostly caused by the staff but some things weren't. Injuries and surgeries in the spring causing soft offseason, QB controversy/drama, losing players and leadership that we lost, the APC, the new staff, the injury bug etc. It will be an interesting offseason for sure, but I think he deserves the chance to fix it before discussing if we are getting our money's worth.

Dude is making a million bucks coaching a Sunbelt team. Dude shouldn't get a whole lot of slack.

Can't judge a recruiting class till they are seniors (I was told)

Can't judge a salary till he has received it for 4 years, (I'm telling everyone)
