In reading the article on Blake James, in particular the increases for coaches salaries and how that allowed CMR to hire some of the better coaches in colleges football. It occurred to me, in an effort to get in on all the top talent available in SoFl and weaken our recruiting, those programs with unlimited budgets will pursue our staff with offers we can't match. Now I can't blame a coach when a program wants to "boost" your salary by $300,000 to $600,000K. Hoping it will not happen soon, but you know it's coming. Meaning we could be replacing coaches more often that would normally occur. In turn having a different coach re-introducing himself to HS coaches and recruits.

The ACC brought in some serious cash. Something close to the SEC. The adidas deal is helping greatly.

just win and the rest will take care of itself.... And play an aggressive 4-3 lol

Jimbo's staff gets poached all the time. How many coordinators has he lost in the last 4 years?

Won't matter as long as he keeps Odell Haggins and Rick Trickett...Adding Charles Kelly right before losing Jeremy Pruitt didn't hurt either.

Miami is already paying a few of the coaches in the elite range including Mark richt, Thomas brown rumored 600000, Stacy searels rumored 475000 for an ol coach is a lot, Diaz and kuligowski. Miami is paying big money for its staff now so it isn't a problem...

In general, 600k for an OC isn't alot. However, it is alot considering that Richt is the real OC and Thomas Brown is pretty much Co-OC to Richt.
 
if what i read was accurate, we were willing to offer the Wisconsin DC more $$$ than any at that time SEC DC was making. Unfortunately, LSU went higher. We have money available and now apparently some seriousness about using it. Both should improve if we start winning again which i can't see how we don't improve significantly.

Yeah it's a lot for a running back coach basically. Richt is the real OF as you have said

Yep, we were offering a million. LSU offered 1.3 mill.

There was a time not long ago the fans and boosters were ready to run Trickett out of Tally. Perry is no where near the caliber of DC Pruitt was for them.
 
The "funds arms race" is an interesting problem and it directly led to D1 P5 essentially breaking away from all other NCAA divisions.

The #1 goal of competitive private universities (i.e. Baylor, USC, Miami, Vandy, BC, Wake, TCU, et all) must be to spend every dollar as wisely as possible.

Look at Oregon's AD palace...it is beyond over the top and wasteful...how many NC's have they won? UT has massive sums available as well...when was their last NC? Bama is obviously the current king of the hill, and their facilities border on stupid (ferrarri designed leather chairs in film rooms), but the key to victory with them is staff from top to bottom. Yes, facilities can be eye catching (water feature in locker room anyone?), but there quickly becomes a point of diminishing return.

Saban and his staff could coach a competitive CFP team in a broken asphalt church parking lot.

Again, the key would seem staff...staff...staff first and foremost and then resonable facility and/or amenities enablers to assist in their tasks.

NCAA needs to figure out someway for a program "spending cap" or only a few programs will really survive and remain competitive over the next 20 years.
 
The OP raises a valid concern but not one to be extremely worried about. The overall disparity on staff salaries isn't as extreme as one would imagine as evidenced by us jumping into the top 15 in HC coach salary simply by making the jump to $4mil per yr with Richt. Richt serving as de facto OC also will serve to make up a lot of ground on what we can pay a Kool, Searels if he proves himself, etc. too. The article I attached below (although slightly dated) shows that average assistant salaries at top programs are probably lower than you'd think. I'd actually be more concerned about losing top assistants to promotions if we're successful than anything else.

You guys are scary. Already shaking in your boots that we're going to lose all our coaches before they've even coached a game?

Since when has that ever been a problem at Miami? We've had some great staffs and phenomenal assistants in the past and never got raided by all these programs that scare you wimps so much.

Little clue for the quivering masses of gelatin: Most assistants want to become HCs. They can achieve that goal more easily here than anywhere else if we win football games. They're coaching at a marquee program under a very honorable HC, who is great to work under and who has a great reputation.

You didn't address the first topic. You took everything he said to the exaggerated extreme. But you made it through a post without mentioning penises so congrats!

Yeah, spending caps have been brought up before...But look at the thread I mentioned them in; Marky Mark Emmert getting extended, i.e. the big state school's figurehead still in charge.
