Further proof we could have made a better choice

Wonder if that is total compensation or just salary paid by the school.  Most of these guys get "hidden" money for endorsements, radio shows, tv shows, etc. That are paid by boosters.  For example the coach Oregon, I am guessing he is getting some more in endorsement money from Nike that brings that compensation well above what would be affordable (or warranted) by our boosters.

There is 0 chance that the Oregon head coach makes the same amount as Taggart. Might say that in that site but as 84 mentioned he's gotta make up for it somewhere else.

Gents, we are missing the big picture. In a projected budget, you have to budget enoigh money to cover all possible bonuses. We have not had to pay any bonuses in a long time, so think of the money we have saved up between FB and BB!

That doesn't look right:

 

Wilie Taggart:

Here are the terms of Willie Taggart's contract as the new head coach of the University of South Florida.

Five years, $5.75 million.

The annual compensation of $1.15 million per year includes $400,000 in base salary and $750,000 in supplemental compensation, for public relations, radio-television and endorsements.

Rich Rod:

Rodriguez's current deal expires Nov. 30, 2017.

The proposed extension would increase the football coach's annual base salary of $1.33 million to $1.5 million. The salary then would increase $100,000 every June 1 through 2018, when it would reach $1.9 million. Rodriguez also earns $495,000 annually for peripheral duties such as radio and TV appearances. Under the proposed deal, that sum would increase to $500,000.

(Bolded numbers are for the current deal)

 

So Rich Rod's base salary alone is already more than Taggart's entire salary (again, talking before the raise.)
