Asst coaches salaries.

[pogo]

I saw a question asked about this on the blog with paul this afternoon and began wondering about their salaries. I believe its important for the top dog to be properly compensated but I also believe its vital to any program the assistants are also compensated well. It is the asst coaches that has the responsibility for recruiting in particular areas. If you lose one you have to replace him with someone familiar with the area or have contacts in a totally new area. If a head coach is always having to find a replacement he has less time to do what he needs to do. Recruiting takes a hit in a big way most of the time when an asst moves on. You see some of these asst coaches at some of these schools (nc for one), that basicly stay forever. It would be nice to be able to pay these guys an amount that if they were offered a head coaching job (Boyle to UNC) that they would have to take a pay cut to leave. Just thinking that its better to pay a little more up front than to suffer later on.

I agree with your overall thoughts...But in the case of Boyle, that wasn't a factor. Tad wanted his own program really bad and hit a time in his career he thought it needed to happen. UNC is located in his hometown. It was a chance for Tad to cut his teeth as the guy in charge at home surrounded by friends and family. If I remember correctly, Tad took a small financial cut on the jump.

I believe UNC had to up their offer to make the pay cut a little less drastic.

So since the subject was broached, just how much do our Asst. BB coaches make?

[benishock]

How much do our assistant coaches make? No where near the 400 grand Dalonte Hill makes at K-State.

But if we had an assistant that fed the kind of talent DH feeds to the kitties he would be worth every nickel.

Not to me, at least not the way they do it.

The asst coaches are around 100k.

[60Shock]

Thanks, Doc, and that seems like quite a bargain at that.

The asst coaches are around 100k.

Not sure this number is completely accurate. Where are you getting your facts from, If I may ask?

The talent is worth every nickel. Not the modus operendi.

[wu_shizzle]

The asst coaches are around 100k.

That's what I thought, because wasn't the joke that SMS was paying Hinson about what we were paying assistants?

You may not. My comment wasn't intended to be completely accurate, but it's close enough.

Actually, close enough would be in the 120k to 160k range, with most falling around 130k or 140k. I am sure Matt makes much less, but Grant and Jans would be within the range, Muzzy probably towards the bottom of the range.
