Yes but you gotta figure how much more you might get coming in from extra seats sold and donations from the excitement of hiring him and if he starts to bring in top talent and starts winning

It's a dice roll, but we needed to hit on the last hire.  This is like okay bet everything.

That's the argument for giving him $5m a year. Not for giving his assistants more than we've ever given anyone's assistants (by a fair margin). If that's the type of "control" he's seeking, I understand the reservations. $10m a year for an entire coaching staff while we're trying to save cash for a stadium is a tough pill.

No it's not lol.

 

$5m for his staff?!?! That would be a big holdup... From what I can see, Scott's staff salary pool this year was $3.6m.

,That’s close as balls.  That’s 1500 season tickets in difference

Didn’t say it would be easy. So we go from paying 6 million a year for a coach and staff to 10 million. You have to measure if that extra 4 million a year can be recouped from donations and extra seats sold.

We still have to play Middle Charlotte State, but at least there is Alabama coming next year.

I wouldn’t be poo pooing Middle Charlotte State when we couldn’t beat anyone in past three years.

Back to Jamey Chadwell. With Willie Fritz staying at Tulane instead of taking the Georgia Tech job and GT now going in-house with Brent Key, that tells me Chadwell is already spoken for - by us. Isn’t this fun?
