    IMO he can't squeeze anywhere near $2M out of UM to stay here. But if you're right, that certainly changes things. And I'm not saying any coordinator will take any HC job. There's obviously other factors. Venables, Stoops...those guys are and were making absolute top dollar to do what they...

    It wasn't Briles. It was FSU. Briles has Arkansas in the top 50 in the country in offense and they were around 100th both of the last 2 years. That dude can coach some offense. You're not wrong, though. It's really, really hard to take a complete tire fire and make it a top unit in the...

    https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/sec/2020/11/29/derek-mason-fired-vanderbilt-football-coach/6457266002/ 2018 tax returns show his compensation at $3.5M. He didn't get that when he was hired, but that was almost 10 years ago. Times and salaries have changed. They're not hiring the...

    We really don't have much history here. In the past 18 years, they've had 3 coaches. The first guy retired unexpectedly and never coached again, they had an interim just for a year, then it's been Franklin and Mason. Not sure how this is a "dead end job". Either way, you can call my job...

    LOL ok, you got me. They're more than a literal zero, which is how many wins they have this season. You gotta win a couple games. That's about it. You can't go literally winless, which probably gets you fired from any program on the planet.

    I'm not sure why I get so surprised on this board anymore...I've been here plenty long enough to know better. But honestly....are you guys ******* high all the time? I don't understand. Derek Mason was making more than $3.5M at Vandy. Three point five million dollars per year. Hold out for...

    Dude, if you think leaving an average paying coordinator job for an SEC HC gig is career suicide, just let me know. You’re flat wrong in literally every possible way and we’ll just agree to wish each other well and not engage in any more dialogue. There are LITERALLY zero point zero of his...

    I mean, the expectations are literally zero at Vandy. From the school and the conference. If you can piece together a decent year or two, you can get a ton of dough from someone who does pour resources into the program and expects to win. Aka, pays top dollar for their coaches. I have...

    Wut? James Franklin parlayed Vandy into like $6.5M at Penn State. And before you say James Franklin and Penn State sucks, that's not the point. The point is a job you can spring into $6.5M a year is literally the opposite of "career suicide".
