So do you think UF is suffering due to underpaying football coaches?
Not nearly as much as we are suffering from overpaying Head Coaches of late. For 12 years now we’ve needed a knockout hire. Instead we’ve gotten the equivalent of Milburn Drysdale hiring Sonny to oversee the Clampett fortune. We’ve been going back to Bugtussle ever since. I’m looking for Coach Napier to turn the truck back around and head back towards Beverly Hills.

So the two charts represent what UF paid assistants last year compared to that of the highest paid staff, not surprisingly Bama's received. UF paid $6.045M compared to Bama's $7.230M a difference not that great considering the on field performance of the two teams over the past decade. Based on results I would conclude either UF grossly overpays poor performance or Bama gets by on the cheap for exceptional performance. You folks fight it out.
Staff is more than just assistant coaches and on that, UF has one or two more people than Pell had in 1982 while Sunblet teams have three times the support staff and Bammer is rumored to have at least six times more. (they are not particularly forthcoming about their actual numbers but their support staff out number their players during the championship games. You we'll see that this week. they will all be in uniform, white running suits.)

I agree however that our athletic coordinator is grossly incompetent and gives pay raises an extensions to coaches who do not deserve it, seemingly anytime our team manages to beat Kentucky.

Really, it's not hard to look at the numbers and see UF seems to be willing to pay similar to the top program even thouh this thread has about ten pages whining about how cheap we are. This does not seem to reflect that POV.
this is exactly the kind of dumb shtt attitude that's kept us here.

Enjoy your McDonalds box lunches, boys.

Not only that, its a 2 million dollar difference for the on field staff (not even talking the back office staff) and he is acting like it is same same.

Does anyone know the total amount of $ Napier is getting? I don’t think I’ve seen it posted anywhere.

This is the type of moronic response that stops people from trying to have a reasonable conversation and just stoop to shyt slinging. Earlier you made a great point that support staff goes much deeper than on-field assistants (which may be NCAA controlled) and this is where UF is probably lacking. My point which you conveniently overlook or just can't acknowledge is we pay the on-field staff competitive to the best and get a lesser result. Hopefully Napier had the chops to get some of this corrected in his negotiations. We shall see!
