Sorry if this has been posted but i found this article and it made me mad...The guy talks about how no one would want to coach in the SEC if they could coach at Clemson for the same amount.

Here is a blogger's response to what Sexton had to say...

So, he’s saying that the SEC is tough (which is correct) and that everyone would like the same pay to coach somewhere that is not as tough and would be easier to have a winning record for the same money. I don’t see what is upsetting you.

The SEC is the best at this point and time, and has been for a while in my opinion. If a coach wants to be the man then he needs to beat the man (Rick Flair rip off). Do we really want someone in charge of our program if he does not feel that he can beat the best? I don’t think so.

It upsets me because I do think those coaches are up to coaching in the SEC. Lane Kiffin was the head coach of a NFL team, how could he be afraid of coaching anywhere in college. Has UT fallen so much that it is no loner a Top coaching job?

I don't know... I think the SEC would we a very desirable conference to coach in. Top level... What coach wouldn't want that?

"So Butch is making $2.5 million at UNC. Big freaking deal. UT could easily offer him $3.0 million, and that’s a huge increase, a 25% raise actually."

That's a 20% increase. :p

I agree with you in that they are up to coaching in the SEC and no I don't think that UT would no longer be considered a top coaching job.

I think that it is called being an agent, nothing more, nothing less. All comments made are to get to the bottom line and get more money for the coach and then the agent.

Couldn't agree more. It just made me mad at first until I realized he was just being an agent.

The SEC confrence has proven time and time again that it is the most dominant confrence in the history of NCAA football. Not to many coaches outside of the SEC want to coach here just for the fact that it is so hard to win here year after year
