Hiring "everyone he wanted" doesn't mean much, since the alternative would be he hired a guy he didn't want but was forced on him.

And money not preventing him from hiring who he wanted is far from "truth".  He couldn't possibly come out and say "this is the best guy available for the little amount we're willing to pay"...sometime you have to toe the company line and say the guy you hired was the guy you really wanted, even if he's only the guy you wanted within the budgetary constraints.

What would be relevant is what the median salary for the top 50ish coordinators is compared to what Syracuse was/is paying.  I think we lagged by a lot in the fairly recent past, and are in the ballpark now - that might be wrong, but its what I've picked up from posters here.  With more investment in the program around him now, expectations should be higher - so I agree a bowl game this year should be the minimum expectation and its time to move on if it doesn't happen.
