REPORT: Colorado has offered Deion Sanders

---

Per Adam Munsterteiger of BuffStampede, Colorado has offered Deion Sanders

 

"An offer making him among the highest paid Pac-12 coaches" has got to be around $5-6mil/yr. USF barely makes that in TV money annually from the AAC. There is an over $30 mil annual difference in TV money alone. I don't see how USF can reasonably compete.

I also wonder why state legislators don't work to elevate all of their tax-funded insitutions and allow such giant gaps to exist unchallenged. Lots of kids pick schools based on sports success. Is it a recipe for success? Maybe not as a primary strategy. But I think its pretty irresponsible that the legislature stepped in to force UF to play FSU 40 years ago but has sat on its hands ever since.

I don’t think he gets paid 5-6 million without proving himself at a school like USF first. I can see USF offering around 3 million a year.

How do you regulate that though? Cap coaches’ salaries? Cap expenditure on sports facilities or what types of facilities they have? That is a complex puzzle to solve.

I don’t see Sanders jumping from a HBCU with 2.5 years coaching there to a P5 school that would provide a better shot at success than USF. He comes to USF and wins in a three year period and he would get better P5 offers. Those P5 schools would want to see success at a higher level than HBCU schools provide.

12 team playoff should only help entice just about any coach towards USF.

Probably the best thing that could've happen to all upper G5 teams.

You could definitely argue that we can make the playoff run if it's the top 12 teams.
