Well, I'm definitely in agreement that this isn't the best we can do. I'd just argue we should pay the same or more to someone better, rather than find someone equally bad and save the money. I hope that's a universal position!
I don't know about money. Per USA Today, CPJ is the 40th highest paid coach in the US and the 6 highest paid coach in the ACC (below Dabo, Fisher, Petrino, Mendenhall and Fuente). In other words... we're getting exactly what we're paying for.
And watch our performance decline further? No thanks!
Talent baby
What if CPJ hires Butch as the DC? Think about it, can you imagine the looks CJP would give Butch during meetings and games.
Is there a point? we are 17-19 the last three years.
If you don't have the money, you don't have the money. Do you think we have four or five million surplus every year that we are hoarding away instead of spending it on a world class staff? I was under the impression that GTAA spends every penny it takes in, every year. I don't think it is going to a secret account in the Caymans.
There’s no law that says we have to have other men’s sports or spend x dollars on them. FYI.
GT fields the minimum number of teams required to be D1. Don't know for sure, but I would guess they also give the minimum number of schollys for non fb bball sports given title 9.
There is a minimum, but we're not at it. I was just about to post something on this. I'll find a cite for you.
Are you suggesting we cannibalize baseball, or track, or swimming budgets and move it back to football? I am ignorant of the financials but my guess 100% of the money for these teams is a drop in the bucket. But I really don't know.
Perhaps we could go full Bernie Sanders and pool all the coaches salaries and give them all, HC and assistants, an equal share.
How many coaches do you think could have beaten UGA in Athens 3 out of 5 times in Athens? How many coaches could have won the division 3 times? How many coaches do you think could have beaten Clemson 5 times since 2008?
