Coaching Staff Salaries

[Marianna-FL_Gator]

Below is what they we're paid in 16

UF saved $1.96 million dollars with the departures from the 2016 staff . Taking into account they upped there coaching salaries $465,000 from 2015 to 2016, we'll say that they should add an additional $500,000 from 2016 salaries to 2017 salaries bringing the grand total of available money for assistant coaches to $2,425,000...(we'll just call it a cool $2.5 million dollars to make the math simple.)

Well the newly hired coaches contracts (OL,RB,DB) haven't been released yet but comparing the money UF spent on the same position coaches last year and being generous I laid out what I believe is logical to consider what UF might pay these new coaches going forward. (Once again based off of last year's coaching salaries+plus there experience)

Brad Davis-$400,000
JaJuan Seider-$450,000
Corey Bell-$350,000

Bring it to a grand total off $1.2 million. Subtract that from the $2.5 million available, you still have $1.3 million left to spend on assistant coaching salaries.

Figure Randy Shannon gets a raise comparable to what Collins got last year, subtract another $400,000. Now we're at $900,000 available.

Rumph just got CO-DC, bump him up to $550,000, now we're at $840,000 left to spend.

If Skipper, Dixon, Nord, and Nuss all get raises on par with last year that would be at average of around $25,000 a piece, bring the grand total now to...

...$740,000 left to spend on assistant coaches. (my math might be a little off but this should be in the ballpark)

So were are we putting this money at? 10th assistant coach? Facilities? Secondary Staff?

This type of bull$hit is why I pulled my support from the program and didn't renew my season tickets. The new coaches could prove to be great but they also could prove to be a$$ hires. So why does the Administration continue to "Go Cheap" and gamble with the future of the program instead of going out and getting elite coaches/recruiters? Smh...I just don't get it! This sh*t shows the "lack of commitment to the Football program" Mac talks about and it's the main reason why we're a mediocre program.

I tend to think otherwise. I don't think Mac is capable of recruiting blue-chip players or coaches. Thus, why pay top dollar for the directional school coaches he has to settle on?

We'll...that's a legitimate theory but since we've never paid top dollar for elite asst coaches it's a flawed one. This sh*t has been happening for 15+ yrs at UF!

That's simply not true. We paid Fat Charlie, Collins, Quinn and several others pretty damn good money.

Oh...we've paid a guy or 2 here and there but one or two coaches doesn't makeup an entire staff and if you Look at the salaries of other staff's you'll understand my point. We don't have an elite staff because they aren't willing to pay for it.

Like I said, I believe we don't have an elite staff because they don't want to come work for Mac.

Last I read Bell and Davis were making about $100k ea at their last stops. I hope we didn't give 3.5-4x their salary to coach here. Smells like desperation.

 

[Gatorraid81]

Damn Nord makes 400k for crappy special teams and tide end play and subpar recruiting. I definitely made a terrible career choice.

I'm sure they are getting raises. Interested to see what they get.

For reference, Callahan made $325k.

Unbelievable he's still on the staff...

Hee Haw never has impressed me as a head coach. He is a perfect example of the Peter Principle:
He has risen to his level of incompetency. The administration may be impressed at his winning the
SEC East the last 2 years, but that was due to a series of fortuitous breaks in several games and the
division being incredibly weak when compared to the West. We will continue to play second fiddle to
the SEC West and, more often than not, take an annual ass whipping from the nolies.

Recruiting is the big problem, and Mac is just a short ball hitter when compared to Saban and Jimbo.
That Number 9 ranking is built on quicksand. 2 of the top recruits wouldn't have even been offered had it not been
for Mac's going to bat for them and begging the administration to allow them on campus. If you look at the class,
there is not a single one that can truly be called a game changer.

I haven't thought about the Peter Principle, but that is a pretty good analysis.

We're not getting a half mil of TE and Special teams entertainment... if we ever block a kick, blow up a return or rumble after the catch by a big man again... well, I'll probably faint.

We'd have to double his salary if we actually managed a blocked kick or a half decent return.

Listen to the whole thing and you won't have to come back to GCMB until tomorrow!

I agree. And I'd also wonder if Stricklin isn't committed to mac either and isn't gonna throw abunch of money into a coach that isn't gonna work out. Most coaches would get an extension after Oregon came sniffing around.

But can you do the Worm like Nord?

If so... then march right in to the bosses office on Monday morning, drop on the floor, do the worm, spring to your feet and DEMAND a pay raise!
