Ed Orgeron may be the next coach, two weeks ago he was flown in to interview for the job...Heard his asking price is 1 million for him and his staff, also heard that they have the money to pay him...Sit back and watch this could be great news!

$1 million? We are crazy if we pay a coach that much. Our program has a ways to go before we can afford that price tag.

I interpreted it as asking for $1,000,000 total to split between him and his staff? Now that's speculating on speculation.

If the combined compensation package for himself and his staff to be $1 million that should be doable. I think that is about the total compensation package for our current staff.

You are correct. I stopped dry and almost fell out of my chair when I read "1 million for him" ... may be $1 million total is not to crazy. $350k-$450k for head coach. $500k for the rest of the staff.

"Get Ed in Red" campaign.

As did I... for whatever that's worth.

I feel dumb for asking this but has Ed had any head coaching experience (and success) at a smaller school? I know all about Ole Miss but was he a successful head coach at a smaller school?

It is doable, we have the money to pay in the $400,000 to 425,0000 for a HC. So $1 Mil for a complete staff comes in under that number.

T, we know the HC will get a pay increase but will the assistants get a nice increase as well?

I hear they are willing to pay up to $150,000 for coordinators. I don't know if we will have to, depending upon the hire.

[Hammer58]

_ We're not back on Coach Cook? You know...at some point we need to finally move past that.

As the last poster said, considering that I have ZERO inside info...which means I have ZERO facts...I will sit back and let the administration do it's job.
