I think he was saying that because we would've received money for going/winning a bowl game.
Rude...
3 more years?? That sucks we are still paying that moron. He should be paying us for giving him the privilege of coaching at UT.
Don't we save some cash on his buyout because he was able to find employment?
No, the way the contract was written for CDD he can go earn as much money as he wants working anywhere and we still have to pay him the entire $5 Million regardless.
I have no idea what Mike "the Moron" Hamilton signed a contract like that.
3 more years to pay off CDD is what it'll take.
The newly signed coaching staffs are getting alot more Money so we'll have to get our finances together if we want to keep this staff of great recruiters to rebuild our talent and depth over the next 3 or 4 years.
I can't think of his name, sorry...the coach that left Boise State and went to Washington is getting $6 Million per year as his starting salry on his 1st contract.
At least that's what I heard on TV somewhere today or yesterday.
It's to the point already that a "fair" position coach that's a great recruiter will get paid alot more for his recruiting abolities even though he's only a "fair" position coach because recruiting top talent is just that important nowdays.
#BrickbyBrick...VFL...GBO!!!
Actually he was saying he wished we had made a bowl game so people like yourself would have the bowl game to talk about instead of making threads about random things with misleading titlesDidn't translate that way to me but if that was his intention then it's not a well researched response. Bowl games don't gaurantee income for a school escpecially with smaller bowls like the one we would have gone to.
His buyout was 5m if I'm not mistaken.
And yes.. You get paid regardless, doesnt matter what bowl.. The conference gets paid collectively!
The school has to pay travel expenses for the team, staff and band. Cost over a million dollars to travel. Smaller bowls don't pay that much.
And yes the bowl proceeds are shared after expenses are paid.
My sweet wife brought up this theory,what if Dooley was hired by Hamilton to screw up Tennessee football for years in Ga's favor?Son of former Ga.coach and long time athletic director.May be too far left field;but,who really knows.What with his(Dooley's)actions toward high school coaches/recruits et.?Just her thoughts.She has been indoctrinated into Big Orange love/life.
