Message: [QUOTE="OttoMets, post: 2355439, member: 716"] These threads confuse me so much. Kudos to [USER=615]elimunelson[/USER] for keeping things tethered to reality. I'm a huge Dino fan. Great professional personality. Huge improvement in style of play. Intriguing early recruiting success. Without fail, competitive on the field. But he signed a 6-year deal presumably to make SU a winning program, yeah? I don't know what the school's benchmark is, but I'm sure they were thinking of some numbers when they put together a contract. So to hear such popular support for "Hey, you've won 8 games and lost 12 - better tear up that contract and give you more money!" is a head-scratcher. Because they gave him 6 years at $X million per to be better than .500. And he's not even there yet. I think the instant-gratification culture's gotten carried away with this one. Didn't mean to address this to you directly, Bill, just liked the way your "5-7, $500,000 raise" mirrored my thinking. [/QUOTE]
