What do we raise Mullen's salary to?

[fishwater99]

4.0 Million ?

[RossDawg82]

$4,000,001

[msstate7]

I have no idea, but I hope we take care of assistants too

[Dawgface]

4.0 Million ?

Probably this.

3.5 but hire a good defensive coordinator

[spudd21]

I want him to get a raise because the team did well, not because bucky played tsun and ggot himself one.

[Liverpooldawg]

The team did do well. He gets a raise, and a big one. One thing is for sure, Sexton played UM, their fans, and Bjork like a drum. I'm sure the trolling was out of love though.

[Coach34]

I'd go 3.75 plus his bonuses he has worked in- he can get to 4MM. Position coaches need a 25-40K bump and probably 75K to Coordinators

[WinningIsRelentless]

4.2 raises for football staff and bracky to be reassigned

[TUSK]

4.0 Million ?

freakin' Hugh's gettin' $4.5 (MM avg)???

is that base only, or inclusive of bonuses?

Sexton is a genius... He'll be able to get $10 outta Bammer, now.

[sandwolf]

I think we should bump Mullen to around $3.5M-$3.75M. That would put him at or inside the top 15 nationally, which is plenty good. The main area that I think we need to really improve is with our assistant coaches' salaries.

Yeah Freeze finished 3rd in the SEC West and gets over 4 Million. And frankly unless Chad Kelly is the next Cam Newton he won't finish higher than 3rd in the SEC West next year if even that high. Sexton played that Florida angle to perfection!

[Todd4State]

I don't think Dan deserves a raise. He didn't finish the job.

[bulldawg28]

He's done a job that's never been done before. What finished job?

[Madisonmd]

Worse thing we could do would be to overpay. Tough decisions with budget constraints. SEC TV money may make decision easier. Staff raises may be as important as HC money. In 2 yrs we drop to 6-6 , that raise is going to look real foolish.

Currently, Mullen is the 26th highest paid coach in the country. I would go 3.3 million. That's a 10% raise and would make him the 18th highest paid coach in the country. He has max bonus potential of 710K. I would up that bonus to 1.25 million. This would more than take care of Dan and it will leave more money in the budget for assistant coaches. Anything over 3.5 million would be a mistake by Stricklin.

What? So he shouldn't get a raise unless we win the West or win the title? We just finished the regular season at 10-2 and ranked #10 in the country. What exactly would he have had to do to deserve a raise in your eyes?

Funny thing is that everyone would be clammering to give him 4.5 if we had the same record but had lost to LSU and beat UM at the end...

[b.mcadams]

We don't raise it. Let Nebraska pick him up. Get Hudspeth.

OM is wasting money on Hugh Freeze. Tying up that much money on a coach (not named Saban) will eventually come back and bite you in the ass.
