Haha Haha Haha are you this naive? You don?t think coaches/ADs complaining to the SEC office has an impact? Dillon Day disagrees.Quote:

We could have a wet paper bag coaching DL and be great. Saban is trying to disrupt this recruiting class because he is scared. The DL talent in Mississippi would make any coach look great. Just look at the nfl rosters.Quote:

I agree. We need to figure out if we actually are underpaying our coaches or not before we declare that as the issue. I do believe that we have the resources to pay coaches more than we are based on Dan and what we were willing to pay him.Quote:

What has John done that was above average since being AD? Serious question cause the only thing I can think of is paying Vic big money. I think LeMo will end up being a great hire but his handling of he baseball search as a whole was a joke. I like John so I'm hoping I'm missing something but I just don't see what he's done that's anything above average.

Because the way things are now, this is only the beginning of this type of stuff.
Where do you think money comes from? Do you think he's sitting on millions in cash? Do you think we paid Lemonis $3M and that's where the money went??Quote:

It's that simple. It's up to the boosters how much we can pay coaches. If you want to say Cohen sucks at fundraising you can, though you'll need to show me the numbers proving he's worse than the previous AD's. The fact is we're poor. Maybe Cohen's worse fundraising is costing us a million or so a year, but even that is a joke compared to Bama.
14 months ago we supposedly had the boosters ready to give out $6M to keep Dan. Joe makes less tan half that. Assistants don't make 3M more than they did under Dan. Lemones can't be making more than 200k more than Cann was, so that's not where the money went. It appears to me like the Boosters were willing to shell out for Dan, but pulled back their total contributions for Joe. I blame them far more than Cohen
Cause Saban is the hardest m'fer in CFB to work for. Enos packed his bags and left without telling him he was leaving. At next meeting Saban supposedly said "Where the f*** is Dan?"Quote:

Bama has Saban to put on a resume.

Unless it is a very unusual circumstance and you're Pat Fitzgerald you have no true loyalty to a school. It's a job for these guys.
Why are any of you shocked, surprised, angry coaches leave any school? Is it hard to understand? Has anyone ever looked to see how many alumni actually coach at the schools they went to?
I hate to see Baker leave but shit it's not like he grew up in Starkville and went to State. Until all the money from state alums gets serious, and not just puffing sizzle chests and yapping about it, about building a Clemson we will be what we are right now. 6-9 win SEC football program.
When it comes to programs hiring positional coaches away from others is the actual question here. And no they aren't going to do shit.Quote:
