What you're suggesting is not a raise it's a one time lump sum bonus, I can't rely on that.  I would want to know why I am the sucker and still the lowest paid employee in my division! Don't get me wrong I'd happily take the $ but we're doing this on the cheap with Shafer. Showing him a little flash money instead of some real cabbage is counter productive. Ultimately my goal for Shafer is to get him to stay if he is as good as we all hope he is.  I'm pretty confident a small, one time bonus is not nearly as appreciated (and therefore likely to retain my services- which should be our goal) as a large, contractually guaranteed, recurring increase in my salary that is competitive with what is available on the open market and that my peers who are doing a nearly identical jobs are being paid.  I get he got paid like a first year head coach but at some point that has to change-preferably before his agent starts getting phone calls with better opportunities.
