Alabama’s football payroll is $63M in 2021. It’s a different universe.

So, the bot fired manny and draws and quarters Blake. Who are we going to get that’s going to beat Alabama, win every game against evenly matched opponents and talk 5*s into Miami over the top 5. The jimbo talk not withstanding, I don’t see whose going to take us back to the top considering...

So you’re saying there’s a chance?!!!

Does Jamis come with jimbo? If so, it’s a great Idea.

We’re talking about bringing him from A&M? My bad. Yea I’m sure his buyout will be perfectly reasonable.

There’s no way in **** Miami is hiring a coach away from the team he just won a ‘ship with.

I’ve been as big a hater as anyone here the last decade but I think I’ve come to realize that everybody in today’s cfb deals with the same shlt we do. Everybody except bama and the couple other elites. Everybody has bad losses. Everybody looses to bama. Everybody’s coach sucks from time to...

We’ve had a series of bad decisions leading this program. No doubt. Even with the right coach tho we’re not going to compete with Alabama.

This is what they’ve done. Each successive coach has been paid more appropriately. The facilities are good. Theres not much to complain about from the admin perspective, as long as we understand that they can’t throw top 5 money at football. The issue now is that they’re paying for 3 staffs...

People do tune in. They tuned in last year, they’ll tune in this year and they’ll tune in next year. The average fan doesn’t know enough to hate Manny, or love him, they just watch football. They’re not going to gain much by firing and hiring.

Wait… we’re talking about Mario here? Cmon

They forget Alabama started this arms race while winning championships… they had no risk.

the problem is the 3 coaching staffs that are being bought out rn. But you’re right… there’s a minimum competence level they seem to not be able hire.

Alonzo isn’t coming with a $60 million investment. Besides, he was in on Lashlee right?

Yes that’s true… fan interest drives tv ratings which is the number that matters. Thing is, we aren’t the typical fan. The few hundred of us who post here are the lunatic fringe. The rest of the fan base is oblivious to these discussions and will show up anytime Miami Is having a decent year.

That’s a valid point. Miami did gain general revenue in the same way in the 80s and early 2000s. I’m not sure what those numbers were. Problem is tho that’s it’s still a huge risk, and if they gamble snd lose the repercussions could hurt the programs that take priority. And no, it’s not wrong...

Unfortunately the ticket sales is the least important revenue stream. If ticket sales mattered things might be different .

How many Staffs can this admin buy out at the same time? Doesn’t it make more sense to hold tight until they can invest max money into ONE staff?

The HC is only only piece of the puzzle. The other pieces are just as important. You’re asking Miami to make a $30+ million per year investment… that’s not feasible .

I was just considering football revenue not donations. im curious how many of those $600m they’d have gotten anyway. Alabama has always had boosters.
