    Some of y’all need a reality check on where we are in the pecking order of the college football landscape. We are in the bottom 1/3 of FBS programs. We have the potential to become a Houston or ECU type program, but we are no where near that at the moment.

    Scott left for The Premier program in college football.
    And as close to a guaranteed national title as you can get. Really no other program can offer that.

    I'm guessing most coaches would take that jump as well. From lots of programs.

    I can promise...you think a lot more highly of our football program than I do. In fact I believe if Scott had coached here for a year, his chances of getting the Alabama job would have decreased dramatically. This was a good move for Scott.
    The Tech guys looks solid to me, but I wonder if making a lateral move is what he wants. We shall see.

    I think tech guy makes 200K. Is it really lateral if you make 20-30% more. You could give me the same title at the same level company and if you gave me a 30% raise I would consider that an upgrade :-)

    I have made lateral moves in my career for more money. I have also turned them down. It will be interesting to see what happens. They are a superior program to ours but an extra 80-100 grand can make a person take notice.

    Projecting a year in advance in no way correlates with your initial statement of the school looking bad now.

    100K at that salary level is life changing. There program is superior at the moment, but not enough where coming here would hamper his upward mobility. It would be a no brainer in my opinion, if he's even offered.

    They've hit their ceiling. We are not even close.
