We’re losing S&C Coach Fitz after all

[OrangeVolMan]

Wow so what are the Giants paying. He would have to get paid at least three times what he is making at UT to break even at the Giants.

 

[Roustabout]

Freaking-A
What the hell do you have to do to keep a coach today? UT did everything for this guy. Geez

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Coaches leave for the NFL all the time.

He was getting paid a good chunk imo but whatever the reason is, I’m sure it’s a good one.

Good luck to him.

 

[Roustabout]

Nothing better than moving to one of the highest cost of living areas and a Corona ingested city.

 

[GAVol]

He’s really underpaid. I’m sure it’s about money.

Yeah... this is definitely about him getting back to the NFL apparently.

 

[BigOrangeAl 1979]

We will miss this guy in 2021

Yep and joining a team that won't be in contention for many years. Sign me up for that.

The NFL job is a much easier job.A college S&c coach is a full time baby sitter during the off season. Since the on field coaches are limited in the amount of time they can spend with the players.

Cost of living won’t be an issue

 

[Boca Vol]

Hire Rock back

LULZ!

 

[lilesrt]

Jeremy Pruitt will replace him with a stallion. No worries.

Well crap.

Jesus Christ! Cant these overpaid gym teachers for once find a "home" and put down roots??? I've never in my life seen a profession where more people want to hurry up and NOT stay somewhere!

 

[Illinoisvolfan2]

Hate to say it but I can’t blame him. I would take the NFL over college for a role like this in a heartbeat.

Maybe he just wants to go somewhere where he’s not called a overpaid gym teacher

 

[imw8n4u]

Pretty soon S&C coaches are going to be demanding head coach $$$ to coach anywhere. I'm sure someone can pull the data, would be interesting to see the change in pay for this role over just the last few years.

 

[butchna]

He is the third highest paid strength coach in the nation

I don’t use blue.

New York fans are notoriously supportive and genteel.

He came to UT from the Houston Texans.....Got a huge feeling it's more about the time involved than the money involved. NFL doesn't pay a huge amount of money for S&C coaches....NFL players have personal trainers and most split town after the season and train on their own. In college it's a 12 month a year job. And he was making $625,000 per at UT....If he wants to break even with the COL in NY he better be making a Mil.

Big loss but can’t blame a guy for going to the NFL.

Demand away. They can’t get it from Bama...and that sets the market. The best will average around $1 mil a year, but they’ll never reach elite coordinator pay...much less HC cabbage.

 

[TrapVol]

Wow... We go through strength and conditioning coaches like Spinal Tap goes through drummers.
Can't sugarcoat this one... Pruitt might get another stud in here, but the inconsistency with strength and conditioning is a big part of our struggles in recent years.

Pruitt’s been here two and we’ve had one /trend.
