Can you just imagine the look on his wife's face when she glances down and sees "Liberty mobile" calling him on his cell?

@champton85: Bell made $700,000 at #FSU as OC for the #Noles
He's leaving that for a job that pays him $625,000 at U-Mass,
If that ain't the definition of #DoSomething, I don't know what is,...

Taking a pay cut for a lesser program is actually not uncommon. Everette Withers left Ohio State, making over $600K, to make $425k at JMU. Many of these Group of 5 jobs (and 1AA) don't pay anywhere near what a coordinator (or position coach in some cases) make at bigger P5 schools. I saw recently the TE coach at FAU is making $65K. Most of these guys that leave the money job seriously want to be a head coach. If he succeeds it will lead to a much bigger pay day. Satterfield is about to triple (or more) his salary from App State.

I think it's a terrible hire. He's buddies w/ the AD (and an alum), but he's a pro football guy. I want them to hire someone who will at least give Kirby some competition - maybe win 1 out of 5, and win a few recruiting battles.

You can’t win recruiting battles at GT. Their admission standards are too high to be competitive, until the administration decides football is important, it will continue to be a place you can’t win. That’s why I think a coach like Paul Johnson was perfect there with his offense that teams only saw once a year.

That's actually a really good hire for Les. If Lindsey can put a good product on the field he'll end up a head coach somewhere. He took a risk going to Auburn and should have known better that Gus wouldn't let him actually call the plays.

How much different can the standards be than Stanford's? You have absolutely no chance at anything running the triple option. Whisenhunt 's a terrible hire too imo. Shoulda made a run at Neal Brown at troy.

That is about the strangest thing ever. However freeze does say he is a good Christian man.

This would be great! Kirby & UGA hopefully falling into the assistant coaching turnover game fairly early into his tenure there. Let’s hope this continues and the destabilizing effect is detrimental to their program.
