In my opinion a new coach needs to bring in at least 2,000 extra paying tickets per game. 2,000 * 30 per game * 15 games = $900,000 per year. That will cover the increased cost of the new head coach and a higher pay for his assistants. Can we get a great coach for $750,000 to $1,000,000 per year with a decent paid staff? Not sure about great but definately a good one. The biggest problem may be that the State will only approve a certain base salary level. I don't think we have the booster power to make up the difference to get to a high guaranteed level.
