Guest BullsFans Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 I'm not saying he ever appraoched Woolard about a raise. What I am saying is the next time this happens I feel that leavitt should take the Bull by the horns (no pun intended) and come out and quash the whole ordeal by stating, "USF has been very fair with me up to this point. I will not be leaving to take the HC job at ________ University" or something to this effect. USF has shown it's loyalty, Leavitt should show his.Amen!I am under contract to the University of South Florida and will not be entertaining offers for other coaching positions until my contract expires. I am first and foremost a USF Bull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did nothing to violate his contract.I consider myself very loyal to my company, however if someone were to come along and offer me a different job, I'd at least listen.I think CJL has proven his loyalty. He's turned down more money to stay here at least twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe it. And to think people ***** about McCullum's pay too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's fairly paid, which is why he shouldn't want to leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we all thought the same thoughts, this would look like a Rivals board (UCF).But I am happy to see us increase the pay of our coaches. I also think it is very clear that Jim Leavitt is not and was not looking to leave when AD Woolard re-worked his deal. Give credit to DW for being proactive. It's not CJL's fault his value has rocketed over 10 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If JL was about the money he would have left USF a long time ago and if you cann't see that then you are dummer then the guy that believes Chuck Shummer hasn't made up his mind on how he will vote for Alito.
