Hearing

[Dawgfan77]

We are going to make a major $$$$ investment in staff

[jwells]

I believe you but just pointing out that doesn't every new coach get this statement made about their staff? When Moorhead was hired, I specifically remember a post saying that Joe was taking a reasonable salary so he could be aggressive with assistants. And yet here we are 2 years later.

I think it's reasonable to believe that Cohen knows he has to get this right & will pull out all the stops

One would hope.

If we want Napier I cant imagine hes not insisting on it. Weve got one of the lowest paid staffs in the conference, it's really really hard to get good coaches, let alone keep them. And hes a big recruiter so I'm sure he wants more than the 500k we spend on recruiting staff.

I'm all for it. 1) Its not my money, 2) our athletic department is 15M in the black so we can afford it, and 3) I want to win

I'm hearing we are going to have to in order to bring in the guy we want. Assistants, analyst, recruiting staff and recruiting budgets all will see very significant increases.

I'm with you. Let's do this right and put our best foot forward and win some games.

If that's Napier, that is very encouraging. He's not coming in to get a paycheck, he's here to win and take us to the next level.

This has to be obvious to Cohen. We're sitting dead last in the SEC in assistants' salary pool around $3.6 mil according to USA Today article. That needs to be around or slightly above $5 mil to bring in a really solid staff. Let's hope we open up the damn check book this go around.

Its almost like that makes sense.

We wont do it though bc thats too much like right

[OLJWales]

I remember back in the day it was shocking when JWS was the first college coach to break the $1M barrier at A&M. Amazing.

Yes we ARE!!

That's the Alabama way of doing things. That would be very telling if true.

Yep. Guys running everywhere according to Napier. But he said there is definitely a method to the madness.

[ScoobaDawg]

Exactly. it wouldn't be just upping the bank for quality people... but QUANTITY.... Analysts... more recruiting staff...

Heard the same. Look for us to go all out we have to get this one right. No more mulligans

[ArrowDawg]

If we don't, we're wasting our time. We've been too damn cheap when didn't have to be.

[dawgday166]

I would think it would be both.

[Coach34]

If we can seal it- we are about to hire a major S&C coach also.

Exactly, were playing Tournament golf and it's time to act like it.
