Well Diaz was making 575K compared to Wommack at 725K. Not sure if Diaz would have stayed or not if we were paying him what Wommack is making but it sure wouldn't have hurt. And we probably have better actual football coaches on our staff than OM does but they have significantly better recruiters. Don't need as much coaching if you have more upper crust talent to work with.

Man, you must have had a really rough weekend if you don't even remember interviewing the guy.

I could be wrong on this, but I think all of their contracts go through NSD. Their performance on the recruiting trail helps dictate their raises, which I like. Where I could be wrong is that I'm not certain it's done for everyone on staff, but I know some of our coaches have had their contract renewals timed in Feb.

Trying to make everybody happy by hiring Ed O, Lance Thompson, Mel Tucker, Tom Allen, Terrell Buckley, & Sleepy will take a toll on you.

It's a fair deal for Buckley -- and my statement wasn't about him. The 3 year guarantee is huge for assistant coaches as well when the vast majority of them are on one year contracts.
My issue is really on paying a DC. We need to pay more here.

Doubtful on Manny staying, as he had a once in a lifetime college coaching opportunity to go back home to where his parents are and his wife is from.

I guess the work of a people pleaser is never done.
