What great coach could we have hired for $8.4 million?

[The Tall Gguy]

If it is true we are paying Gundy $8.4 million, I will have to find another team on general principle. We could have hired Nick Saban for that.

 

[CountVolcula]

Saban makes $11 mil a year with bonuses

Just be happy its not another MAC coach

Damn

[Orangeblood98']

1. It’s not true.
2. No “great” coach is coming to Tennessee no matter what we’re offering.

Looks like Twitter is saying 8yrs 50 million. So 6.25 a year. Still a lot, but still better than 8.4

 

[Forever151]

Gus Malzahn
Jimbo Fisher
Garry Patterson
Chris Peterson
Most NFL coaches


All make under that

 

[EastTNVol6240]

ITs coming out that it was less than that which is believable. 6ish is probably more like the accurate number. But 6ish also means he probably won’t be packing up his family for that raise. Currie will not pay a coach 8 mil a year.

 

[UTK]

I just have to hope we offered Petersen that first and he just declined.

Mike Gundy

Apples and oranges...not the same coaches at all.

app not a ****ing one.

Looks like Brice is saying 8yrs 50 million. So 6.25 a year. Still a lot, but still better than 8.4

8 years !!! Hope he doesn't suck . Other wise that's the end of our football program

 

[TexasVolfan1]

Trey Wallace is also reporting around 6 million a year plus incentives.

 

[The Tall Gguy]

$6.25 million is quite a bit more than a Gundy hire should rate...our AD is desperate to get anyone to take the job. Not saying Gundy is good or bad choice, just saying the salary is RIDICULOUS.

if it is true we are paying gundy $8.4 million, i will have to find another team on general principle. We could have hired nick saban for that.

 

[1725gatorhater]

Shut up. We are lucky if we get him.

Buy out must be hell...may we never need it.

WTF?! Why would u care if the boosters are paying more than you think the coach deserves? He is a huge improvement, especially from the entertainment aspect. No pleasing some ppl. If you are going to stop cheering for a team bc you think the boosters are too willing to over-spend their own money to get a great coach, then go whack off to the best black friday shopping deals or some crap. football aint for you

You sound like the kind of guy that, if you found a $100 bill in a mud puddle, would complain that it's a little dirty.

Gundy is a great coach and we'd be lucky to have him. Stop whining.

You start winning and we will make that much per week.

 

[airvols]

Just stop some you wouldn’t be satisfied with General Neyland. If it’s Gundy we need to prove to the nation what we did made a difference and rally behind the new coach.

Lane would of been here for about 2 mil and the co-eds
