He's not going to be the highest paid coach in the country. But all parties will be taken care of.

That would be a bit surprising to me since he has earned it IMO. If the rumor is 1.2 I wouldn't be surprised if we go up to 1.6. I don't think Cohen or anyone associated with MSU would have a problem with that increase.

It's not going to be 1.6. Our staff is going to be well paid. Lem wants that. He's getting fairly compensated for. But the "rumor" number is much closer

Fairly Compensated? what's that supposed to mean?

Meaning coaches have all sorts of incentives and sponsorship contracts and opportunities that the school uses to enhance their salary. Think Bear Bryant hosting his coaching show with bag of Golden Flakes and a Coke on his desk. When you hear Chris doing Country Pleasin' Sausage commercials you'll know he's being taken care of.
"After dealing with Ole Miss for over a year," he said, "I've learned to expect their leadership to do and say things that the leadership at other Division I schools would never consider doing and to justify their actions by reminding themselves that "We're Ole Miss.""

Put him in the Top 5 salaries in the country. He's a top 5 coach. We don't need to use TN as a measuring stick. They grossly overpaid Vitello and that contract is going to look like the John Wall Wizards contract in about 2 years. We can use what LSU was paying Manieri as a good measuring stick contract. He was making around 1.2 and that's a good number.
