someone posted that if 2k ppl gave 500 bucks we'd have 1mm for a coach

Why not form a group of 1000 willing to pony up $1k each to get 1mm to pay the head coach...

Who is the highest paid coach in CUSA - I doubt they make 1mm...

I think Graham makes a million. The main flaw I find with your thought is that each of the 2k have to agree to 500/year for several years. I would even give $1000 for one year if that is all it would be. What will happen if the winning does not happen soon enough. Who is going to enforce the pledges? I would rather we find a big fish or two or three to offer up several million for a package deal for a head coach and money for assistants for a period of a five or so years.

money talks

I thought O'Leary made more than a million.

I have actually made it but it took many years.

$1m is probably the min we should expect to pay for the type of coach we need - d1 hc experience, proven/winner, can recruit, can can coach on game day and the hiring will make a big splash in the college football world.

We have trouble finding 5k to pay $200 for season tickets. Our best bet is a few big donors.

O'Leary gets over $1 mil, Tommy West is close to it at Memphis, and I believe the deal Todd Graham got at Tulsa was something like $1 mil.

And for comparison, Patterson at TCU and Pat Hill at Fresno St. are other mid-major coaches who are in the million dollar range.

i got a million to spare

Plus you would have to come up with the dough to buy out the rest of Bennett's contract that Copeland signed him to!
