What does he make now?

He currently makes $950,000 a year, and if I remember correctly, I think his buyout was only like $400,000 or $500,000.

If that figure that random VQ poster posted is correct (highly doubtful), that would be around $1.875 million a year. It would make him the third highest paid assistant in the SEC, trailing only Auburn's Kevin Steele and Dave Aranda of LSU.

Another poster on VQ saying a friend inside the program said it’s going to be Cheney and soon. 4years 7.5mil.

He even shared numbers, we’re getting close!

I will jump up and down and do flips if this is true, after reading some of the names earlier today. However, I have a hard time believing we are going to pay him almost $1.9 million a year.

On another note, does anyone think something might be going on at Georgia? Seems like there was a big rift before the bowl game and players that did not play. Now, there are a lot of players declaring early for the draft, and we might poach their OC. Just thinking out loud. Probably not though.

No offense, but this is a horrible take. Please, VN, I urge you — do not go to this place!

Turning on Pruitt is (a) not justified at this point and (b) completely counterproductive.

Learn from the past. Do not do the same thing to Pruitt that this fan base did to Butch (i.e. undermine his ability to do his job by promoting a pervasive narrative that he is not capable).

I’m impatient and want to see somebody announced (and will joke about it on here), but let Pruitt take his time, and support/hope for the best for whoever it ends up being. It’s all irrelevant until August 31 anyway.

This a thousand times.

But my friend, I'm afraid it falls on the deaf ears of the selfish who think what they want matters more or the arrogant who think they know better.

From VQ:


Rivals Mod Anthony Dasher gives legs to the Chaney rumor in his latest post.

“As far as coaches are concerned, like you, I’ve seen the rumors regarding Jim Chaney. It's been suggested that Jeremy Pruitt is possibly considering him for the vacant offensive coordinator’s job at Tennessee.

Although I’ve heard nothing specific from my end on this, until Pruitt makes the call, it’s a situation that bears watching.

Chaney, like all of Georgia’s current assistants, received a raise back in February. However, it was only $100,000, compared to the $600,000 increase given to former defensive coordinator Mel Tucker, and the $480,000 boost given James Coley (current salary at $850,000) to spurn an offensive coordinator’s offer from Texas A&M.

If Chaney does leave, it’s not expected to have any impact whatsoever on offensive lineman coach Sam Pittman ($825,000). On the other hand, you can bet, don’t be shocked if you hear other teams ultimately checking in, given the coach's success.”

So, with this thinking, since offense is not his expertise, isn't it a good thing that Pruitt, who needs to hire someone he can trust opposite him the line of scrimmage, is taking his sweet time to find that person?

I’d say you’re right. However, according to AV and some others, Yurcich was all but hired and at the midnight hour, changed his mind. There’s nothing Pruitt can do about that except force the next person to accept the offer and begin working immediately rather than do them a favor and wait till the bowl is over. If anything, that’s probably the biggest lesson CJP has learned.

His contract’s up too. So no buyout.

You know what really grinds my gears? When people add an unnecessary "s" to someone's name. Example: Urban Meyers, Jimmy Cheeks, Bob Shoops, etc.

I think it looks better. Prepared to accept the consequences of your ire.

I guess some of my frustration is that the timing of a hire does not guarantee it’s a good or bad hire.

So while we’re sitting around waiting for Pruitt to decide what he wants, it does not guarantee he’ll make a good hire. Just like hiring a day into the search doesn’t guarantee it’s a good hire.

But what it does is allow the candidate pool to dwindle. And that could end up being a problem at the end of this thing.

As I've replied to you before, it's just as likely that it's taking him so long because he knows exactly what he wants but hasn't found it yet.

It could also allow the candidate pool to grow, in fact it has with NFL coaches and playoff and late bowl coaches.
