congratulations you have just been hired as usf's new AD

[Brad]

We dont have the money to bring in a proven OC. 

we have already proven that we pay out OC around $37 less that UF pay theirs...

So would he come here for $37 less?  And why not?

ehhh... i don't think anyone is saying to bring in UF O-Coord... it is a fact that we pay 37K less. UF obviously hires top flight, in-demand coaches as they can do pretty much whatever they want...

We is being said is that we pay enough to hire quality... not the cream of the crop but quality.

I was suggesting in a round about way that if coaching candidate A had the choice of going to Florida for or South Florida for about the same pay where do you think he would go, and what would it take to get one to leave UF and come here?  It's not as easy as just throwing up the same amount of money when so many other things are different from donor base to budget to facilities to national prestige to recruiting advantages..  Does anyone remember the USF Basketball coaching search?

If I were in a position to make a difference...I'd:

1. Tell Woolard bye bye. Retire. Your salary is too high for what you bring to the table. 

2. Offer CJL the AD position - with special emphasis on working on 3 things:

a. focusing on helping the new coach/staff/team get to a BCS bowl.

b. focusing on helping the new coach/staff/team get the basketball team to regular NCAA appearances - and winning once there. 

c. getting funding set-up to start building Jim Leavitt Stadium - the man DESERVES it to be named after him.

3. Hire Chris Petersen away from Boise State.

wow you just got hired and you are going to give another person your job? Kudos

I'm sure he'll set himself up with a nice golden parachute before offering his job to CJL ...
