John Cohen, it's time for you to do your job

If Saban wanted him, Bama would have definitely come knocking. Saban may not get everything he wants concerning the Alabama Football Program, but he doesn't miss on much. But how do you come up with a formula to over pay somebody but not actually way over pay them, when you have no clue that a program like Bama will come after your DL Coach, and don't know what their salary package offer will be?

Our D was #1 in the nation, and Baker was recruiting his ass off....overpay by enough that it doesn't matter. I bet Clemson feels like they got pretty good ROI on their overpaying of Venebles. If you truly want to take a next step, if you truly want to be a Clemson one day...You HAVE to lock down your best guys. You don't have to overpay everybody, just be strategic by knowing who is truly the glue to your #1 Defense and pay their ass handsomely. It's not hard. Nobody on O (maybe Johnson for recruiting) should have gotten a penny raise, so making substantial raises for guys like Baker shouldn't have been hard. Stop making excuses...we aren't Huge money but we aren't Southern Miss either
