Diaz Temple Contract

[Brandinho]

Contract will run through 2023 (5 years) worth somewhere in the neighborhood of $8M.

Glimmer of hope for those who wanted Diaz as HCIW: same expiration year as Richt and I cannot imagine the buyout being too large regardless.

Also for those who asked in other threads: Diaz will indeed coach the bowl game.

What was his salary here?

Makes sense.

****, not even 2 million a year.

 

[Brandinho]

What was his salary here?

Just south of $1M a year, pretty sure.

 

[Handsome Squidbum]

What was his salary here?

2 large boxes of pastelitos and 5 croquetas de jamon per day.

 

[TexasCane90]

We couldn’t match that? Lol

Fire cuck James

 

[Garnacho]

I really think he would of stayed here with a salary of $1.51MM

 

[Sigma_Cane_7]

****. Dude left for pennies. We was going to go cut his teeth somewhere. Proud of him.

If the admin refused to bump his pay to keep him... well I guess that says it all.

I knew Temple wasn't breaking the bank. I'm surprised he jumped so fast.

 

[Tobias23]

Wow, we couldn't pay him $1.5 million after his production. We pay Richt $4 million a year for the 94th ranked offense. Richt should have offered up some of his salary.

 

[Brandinho]

Didn’t get the official number but I’d estimate around 1.75M. 8-10 is probably right

How do you know they refused to bump his pay? Barry Jackson reported JUST THE OPPOSITE

 

[Ammok]

Beats staying for the Shichtshow

I don't. Teeth cutting HC job where last 4 Temple HC have ended up at Power 5 schools. If his defense takes a step back, you honestly think Manny is as hot as he is today?

If he went for 1.6ish then he just wanted to leave. After taxes he will most likely make the same as 1m here due to Philly city tax and PA state tax.

 

[LoyalCane24]

i dont think its for the money. He wants to use temple as a stepping stone for a big time head coaching job

$1.25M and 5 year deal would’ve been enough if made timely imho

He had the best defense of his career and only temple showed interest. He probably felt he had to jump on that offer.
