Well, I could see a set up where they hire 8 to 10 former HS coaches (and/or older, near retirement college coaches.....or former players) at around $50-$60K and each of these coaches has a responsibility and 4 or 5 "interns" or students working for them. That would be around 40-60 staffers at a cost of around $500-600K. The interns could get some sort of stipend, free tickets, free travel, etc. It's a great concept. What I like about it is when your primary target commits elsewhere you aren't scrambling to find a Plan B. Also, as you mention....breaking down film/QA work. That's very important. Each of these staffers could get one game, such as UGA, where their sole focus is scouting UGA (along w/ the 4 or 5 interns); where they know every play, nuance, injury, scouting report, etc.

Where do you think you are going to find interns like that? Grad students former football players maybe but your average 19 year old cant do that, even if he played in HS.

I'd say you find a kid like Jedd Fisch or Charlie Weis. There's gotta be dozens of them hoping to land a job/internship. Hell, the kid that Meyer just fired at OSU (Zach Smith) did it at UF (he wasn't a player).
I have a buddy that spent 4 years working in the athletic trainers department, basically doing menial chores (cleaning uniforms, stowing equipment, etc). He traveled w/ the team, got free tickets, and has a lifetime membership to the Letterman's Club (we used to go into the Letterman's Club at halftime and get free food, ice cream, etc).
But the other positions, you could hire HS football coaches, former players trying to get into coaching, older college coaches that get washed out of the game, JUCO coaches who don't make sh*t. Many of these type of coaches would JUMP at a $60,000/year salary - especially someone under the age of 30.

I haven't looked it up, but I'm going to guess he's probably the top rated JUCO DE.

Mount Cody was a juco. Jaran Reed. Theyve always been willing to take a juco or two.
We are the ones who think it is beneath us, bc we are the new Vandy Lite.

Wow. Another huge miss by the staff. If they were ever going to really get anybody good from California this was going to be it. Strong ties to Florida.
Let this be a lesson to them – focus your time in Florida.
