Looking West for the Next Head Football Coach?

[johnnylightnin]

So we are taking a serious look at the HC of Toledo? A 32 yo guy of DIII Mount Union fame and the MAC. Nothing against Coach Campbell, he might be a great hire and I for one believe that MAC football is pretty good and consistent through the years. We must be broke.

Campbell is not on your original list. Are those guys too rich for our blood?

Overall - I think they are probably too rich but they are also in somewhat troubled waters. Monken just left a safe, good paying job at Okie State to jump into the mess that is Southern Miss. I am sure we could pay Matt Campbell a lot less money than any of the Big 12 guys.

You think a guy like Norvell would demand that much more than what Sonny was getting? Or are we not able to maintain what we've been paying?

Norvell is making 330K at Oklahoma. Same as his "co-coordinator" Josh Huepel. What do you think he would demand?

Seems like a $170K raise would be very doable.

News is starting to leak now about Josh Huepel possibly interviewing at Arkansas State within the next few days maybe as early as tomorrow. These "Co-coordinators" at many of these schools have to be looking at what is going on and wondering everyday whether they should be on the bus leaving the station. Monken was the sole coordinator at OSU and making 600k.

Jay Norvell........stay tuned.

That explands why he is not coming to LaTech.

I don't think it was the only reason but with all of these guys -it's a big part of it.

Not sure how I feel about co-coordinators. How do you know who is responsible for any success?

Easy...the one we hire was responsible for the success while the one we pass on was an albatross around our guy's neck.

Norvell makes $600K at OU.

[JDubyadawg]

Norvell makes $600K at OU.

I stand corrected - Norvell is making 350K at OK, where are you getting 600K?

He makes $330K, please ignore the child-molester photo of Josh Heupel.

[JDubyadawg]

Huepel and Norvell both received 20K raises last June to bring them to 350K each. Brother Mike Stoops is making 600k as the DC.
