That is the way it is. This would be a decent conference - IF the money was on par with the P5 conferences. Big if, though. It wouldn't even have to be on par. It would need to settle at about half of what the P5 are doing, which would be roughly 10-12 million a season. Unfortunately we're at about 1/10th of half. The money divide is what's going to kill us. We can still get players to be competitive. It's a problem when position coaches are getting paid more than head coaches. Hell there are a handful of coordinators making more. It's only a matter of time before the added money trickles down the staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would to have the problem that we are so successful that a coach is leaving for another program. That being said I hope we have big money alumni and doners to keep our coaches.

I agree that it's a good situation when a coach leaves for a "better" program. However, when the day comes that Willie Taggart leaves his 1 million dollar USF head coaching job to take a $1.5 million RB coach job at Stanford, that's an issue. That's a drastic example, but with the widening gap, it's a possible reality to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I think it is about 1.15 ish We are paying 3 head coaches, so we dialed back the salary a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In ten years USF and UCF may be one of the biggest games of the season. Imagine both rank top 10 would get national spotlight. I think we may see a top 20 match up sooner than later.
