anyone know the salary figures?

"Bigger names" isn't as important as who Babers feels he works better with.

I doubt we'll see any neo-nepotism -- Babers is a guy with a proven track record of success, proven head coaching acumen, who is going to expect to win fast here. He's going to hire competent people to help his cause, not buddies.

Thats all I want. I didnt mean to say I care about names. Just don't want any "buddies," just cause they act like family! Win football games!!!

They have to announce the top 10 paid employees each year, I'm goign to go out on a limb and saw Dino is our new #1.

I'd be surprised if base was over 2M pre incentives.

I'm pretty sure it's 200K

Correct. It was 300 K, but it went to 200 K effective December 1st.

Iowa State paid Scott Campbell $2 million base for 6 years. I think that is probably what Babers got.

I think I read DB has a 750k buyout at BG.

I would hope SU pays that buyout.

DB deserves a little more than SS got. I would start at 2 million per and give a higher assistant budget. We should be able to afford 5-6 million per year on FB coaches.

We are on the hook for SS's 1.4 million though for one more year or however he wants it paid.

I have no idea but I'd assume $5M would be the absolute floor for P5 schools hiring or trying to retain a coach. I'd also guess that a few years from now (3 maybe) that number will be in the rear-view and it will be $6M if not $7M. Agents aren't dumb.
