What are the chances we retain these three individuals for next season?

sportsdawg and I were there ( 3 of my grandsons)--wish I had seen Diaz --would have told him how much Tech apreciates him. Whatever happens most of us will hope for a great future for him

I told him for you (and all of us) as they walked into the TAC.

Tech might not be able to match Diaz's MS State's $260,000 salary in 2010, but Tech could get a lot closer to that than the $650,000 he was making at Texas. http://www.sunherald.com/2014/12/29/...ider.html?rh=1

I would like to see Tech focus on assistants (find an addition $250,000 to distribute among the assistants).

Extend Holtz contract for a year and increase his incentives, return to a bowl next year then redo his entire contract.

I hope we are moving on this front.

I hope we are moving on this front.

I don't agree that we should pay special attention to Diaz. We have ZERO chance of keeping him if money is his motivation.

Giving ALL the assistants a raise that will help us in the next round of hiring should be our goal. We lack in this overall category not in what our coordinators make.

Still makes me SICK that we gave Dykes the raise and paid Franklin what we paid him to be a part time coach.

FWIW Football scoop has Diaz on their LSU DC short list...

As he should be. But I'm not sure it would be a wise career move to go to Baton Rouge as a DC right now.

GREAT NEWS-- Miles is not gifted enough to hire him...

We're gonna hold you to that

But the idiot hat is lucky enough to bring him onboard with state $$.

Can't believe lsu would hire anyone from LA Tech. Seems like they should hire everyone from ull since everyone in the state (OK really just lafayette) think they have the greatest coaches on earth. Wonder if their coaches would even go with the Big 12 invite coming. sorry got confused with new years day and April fools day. 2014 was a great year for the University hopefully we build on that success with even more in 2015. Happy new year everyone!!!

Has there ever been a valid rumor that their coach Hudspeth has ever been on another school's hiring list?

Yes, for S&C coach.

not that I have been aware of. I figured I would have heard it living in the area. To me that means a lot that he hasn't. Remember he has no signature win and have not won sunbelt outright.

And he's making 7 figures. Go figure.
