They were paying Dabo around $5 million plus bonuses during the last 2 years.  With the NC it should be at what they are paying at $6 million as they are now a perennial top 10 team.  Surprised it is a little more like $7 million but maybe Dabo went for the extended term instead.  Certainly helps in recruiting for them.

Dino is paid at $2.5 million plus bonuses.  Right where he should be - it's a very competitive wage and is competitive to a P5 top 40-50ish compensation. However, once he starts recruiting top 25 classes and we end up being ranked in the top 25, the minimum range of a top 15 to 30 team is between $3.5-$4 million plus bonuses.  They will need to pay him $4 million to keep him long term once he gets us to that level.

I think with Wildhack as AD plus Tirico on the BOD, paying Dino $4 million per year with top 25 performance on the field & off with recruiting is attainable at SU.  I wonder how high SU is willing to go if a top 10-15 level school comes knocking with an offer around $5 million.

But first let's get to a bowl game starting this year!  Go Orange!
