Asking in behalf of a foreign friend
Pick a better option:
(1) Vitello for 2.5M/year
Or
(2) Nick Mingione (or similar) for 575k and 1.925M for players per year
My foreign friend keeps telling me that coaches are just employees. Does not understand why a college coach gets 3x an MLB coach? When you discount non-SEC games, it seems that MLB coaches are coaching 5 times more games.
My foreign friend thinks agents and ADs are chiseling colleges.

Is that 1.925M actually transferable to NIL though?

You would think so but somehow we are saving 3M on our FB coach this year and allegedly our Football NIL fund isn't anywhere near that. I don't understand.

No - not at all

We need the boosters who would fund the football coach salary that we're saving to fund NIL instead.
And same for baseball too if we replace Lemonis with someone lower-salaried.

I'm not an accountant but these NiL deals are All pretty much bullshit. Pure Give always.
Miami has players on YouTube "selling" health insurance that I have never heard off.
Other than the Bama QB on Dr Pepper ads, the rest are selling hoodies and visors. Somehow LSU pays huge NIL salaries. The girl in the picture is "selling" this "merchandise", if I gave this to my kids, they would look at curiously and then deposit in the family donation box for Goodwill. 100% sure of it.

I can sit on a bucket for $300k per year. And stroll out to the mound every other inning, or in some cases every other out, to change pitchers.
But if we catch lightning in a bottle after getting 10 run ruled twice in Hoover, they will owe me $1 million bonus for getting the team to carry my bucket to the championship round.
Then they could use the rest on players

I would take Vitello because he is a much better coach.

MLB managers just manage the team. There is a GM and scouting department that drafts, signs free agents etc. In college ball, the coach also has to be the GM and scout (evaluate and acquire players). Honestly it’s a much bigger job in college. And the players need more development and coaching in college. Raw professional players tend to develop in the minors.
It’s true that coaches are just employees. But that applies to all situations. A janitor and Nick Saban are just Alabama employees. A young dude working at the Apple Store and Tim Cook are just Apple employees.

Schools cannot pay players NIL money. Remember, they are getting paid for "endorsements"*, not athletic performance. If they were paid to play ball then they would lose amateur status and be ineligible.
Everyone wants to be a beast...until its time to do what beasts do.

I mean? yes obviously. But lets not fool ourselves here

Until family farms and engineering firms start having "faces of their businesses," we don't have the reach in our alumni base to compete financially with...basically anyone.

Todd- elaborate on that opinion. I know several share that opinion as well where I do not. I do think he's a great recruiter (I see him everywhere), and he's stock piling talent at a mind boggling rate...but I just don't see the coaching ability other than encouraging everyone around the program to act like an ass and be cocky.... they don't field it great, don't run the bases great, streaky bats with all or nothing approaches.....I just don't see the "coaching"....

Not Todd
But he recruits better, coaches better and his teams play with a chip on the shoulder and swagger

Doesn't the Bulldog Club or others pay majority of coaching salaries?

Yeah, what a joke. Sure Stenson Bennett has had giant NIL deals and that "student athlete" has been unable to get a degree in six plus years at GA. What an institution of higher learning.
