Landan Salem (Director of Player Personnel) leaving SU

Did not get nudged at all. In fact, quite the opposite. Memphis is a significant $$$ increase.

Think about that for a second - Memphis of the AAC pays better than Syracuse of the ACC.

how do you know that?

There are many people on this board who have different sources. I have a good one in this instance.

well if that source is correct, which i’m not sure it is, so what? You’re post acts like it’s some indictment on SU. Maybe Memphis throws a lot of money at coaches? Good for them but maybe they are out of line with others. Their head coach makes more than Babers too, but he makes more than the head coaches at BC, Oregon, Maryland, Notre Dame, Arizona, Arizona St, Kansas St, Wake Forest, etc. also.

The Memphis coach doesn't make more than the head coaches listed.

Highest Paid College Football Coaches & Salaries - USA TODAY

Ever wondered who the highest paid coach in college football is? Find out today with USA TODAY's complete salary data.

That was Norvell’s salary. He signed an extension in 2017 that gave him the highest salary of any G5 HC.
But Ryan Silverfield is the new HC. He has never been even a full fledged OC (curious hire). I don’t think the terms of his contract have been announced, but given his lack of experience and accomplishments, I suspect his salary is no where close to what Norvell is making,

It would be pretty disturbing if a school losing millions of dollars every season on football like Memphis was willing to pay considerably more money than a school like Syracuse. Especially with a complete unknown with no track record now running the program.

it was the only data available. And while the new coach I’m sure doesn’t make that as you pointed out, the USA Today data shows a school like Memphis is willing to pay good money for its coaches and more than other P5 schools. Because they did/do isn’t done reflection on SU which warrants a “think about that” as if it’s a negative reflection on SU.

That's interesting to me. Do they have incoming revenue to support such a move or are throwing out whatever cash they can to win? I can see why Rutgers would do it as they too are deep in the red but will have big 10 $ flowing in the future. Does Memphis have a play here where they see a future in overspending?

As for SU, as far as I care they can spend the money however they want, it's their business plan. There may be a cost benefit such as Bollar vs Salem or the like where Salem may have seen the writing on the wall or Memphis simply went after him and paid better or even possibly a previous relationship with the current Memphis staff.

If Memphis did outspend SU and lured Salem away and Dino/AD knew this and wanted Salem to remain but still couldn't retain him because of $, could it be possible money was allocated to the new staff coming in and this hit/move by Salem put them over this threshold?

Bees. You were correct when Norvel was the coach. The new guy makes considerably less.

that misses the whole point to what I responded to.

I think they throw them a bone every now and then but it isn't close to what Nike does with Oregon. Wasn't it FedEx that promised any P5 conference that would listen it would give them $100 million if they would only invite Memphis?
 
we are talking about a position that doesnt pay all that much does it? i mean getting lured to memphis is one thing but its not like SU paid him 100K and Memphis is paying 500k?
