Message: [QUOTE="orangecuse, post: 478390, member: 668"] Is Marrone getting $4mil/yr.? If so, playing devils advocate, say he only lasts 3 years as I cannot see Buffalo giving him anymore than a 4 year contract max at this point (Doug's an unproven commodity at the NFL HC's position). Simple math says $4 x 3 = $12m. At SU, $2m x let's just say 10 years (prior longetivity argument, of course it could be longer too) is $20m. He could certainly return to college if he fails in the NFL, but, imo, would never hold a higher HC position than that of SU. More than likely, if he fails at the NFL HC position, he will be relegated to some assistant level NFL position, which is more typical. With such demotion, his earnings potential significantly decreases as well...In the end, only time will tell...the grass isn't always greener... In regards to your broadcasting remark, of course he could, but, that isn't the premise of what we are diplomatically debating. :) [/QUOTE]
