How much is AU going to pay these NFL coaches leave the NFL & the Packers at 12-0 right now?

You do realize that NFL position coaches don't make big money (as coaching money goes), right?
I realize they don't make a ton of money, but it is the NFL, and they are coaching a 12-0 team that will more than likely go to the Super Bowl.
They're Aub's though, so I guess it's possible they'll want to come back to AU as DC/position coaches. I was just curious.......

Do not be surprised if Gene Chizik turns to Everett Withers.
Nice him or Randy Shannon would be great.

Tell me more about him
Withers has made accomplishments at several of his coaching stops, both college and the NFL. While he was the defensive backs coach of the Titans, they achieved a top ten defensive ranking in 2002, his first season with the Titans. From 2002-2004 the Titans grabbed 57 interceptions, the best ever for a three year span for the franchise, fourth best in the AFC and eighth best in the NFL. The Titans tallied 21 picks in 2004, with 16 coming from the Withers coached secondary[3] . In his first year with the Tar Heels, his defense totaled 20 interceptions, one shy of the school record for interceptions in a year. 2009 was an elite year for Withers' defense as they ranked sixth in total defense in the nation. They ranked 10th against the run, 13th in scoring defense and 14th in pass defense. The UNC defense was the only defense in the nation that was ranked in the top 15 in total yards allowed, scoring defense, run defense, pass defense, pass-efficiency defense, third down defense and tackles for loss. The Carolina defense totaled 19 interceptions and set an ACC record with 508 interception return yards. In 2010 the Tar Heels matched their interception total of 2009 with 19 picks. The Heels also ranked fourth in the ACC and 30th nationally in defense, even with injuries that made Withers play a different lineup every game. During the three total years that Withers was defensive coordinator of the Tar Heels, they totaled 58 interceptions.

Wasn't he the DC of the Tar Heels and now their interim coach?
Didn't he do extremely well there and with the Titans?

I've heard two names. Everett Withers & Ron Zook. Don't know for sure if it is ultimately going to be one of them, but it wouldn't shock me for it to be (and I'd lean Zook, but I could be wrong).

Everett Withers was named Carolina's interim head coach on July 28, 2011. Withers is in his 24th season as a coach and has experience at both the professional and college level. He has served as Carolina's defensive coordinator and secondary coach the last three seasons. Decimated by personnel losses and injuries in 2010, Carolina's defense still ranked fourth in the ACC and 30th in the country as the Tar Heels played with a new lineup virtually every week. Defensive tackle Quinton Coples earned first-team All-ACC honors and linebacker Bruce Carter was a second-team pick. Following the season, five Tar Heel defensive players were taken in the NFL Draft, including first-round selection Robert Quinn, who missed all of the 2010 season.
In addition to his duties as the coordinator, Withers oversees the defensive secondary, which has developed into one of the best units in the country. Carolina picked off 19 passes in 2010 to match the previous year's total, and has 58 interceptions over the past three seasons. Safety Da'Norris Searcy, a fifth-round pick by Buffalo, led the team with four interceptions in 2010.
In 2009, the Tar Heels' defense was among the nation's elite, ranking sixth in total defense, 10th against the run, 13th in scoring defense and 14th in pass defense. Carolina was the only school in the country ranked in the top 15 in total yards allowed, scoring defense, run defense, pass defense, pass efficiency defense, third-down defense and tackles for losses. Six Carolina defenders were named all-conference, including first-team picks Quinn, Quan Sturdivant, Kendric Burney and Deunta Williams. Carolina had 19 interceptions and set a single-season ACC record with 508 interception return yards. Withers was nominated in 2009 for the Broyles Award, which is presented annually to the nation's top assistant coach.
In 2008, the opportunistic Tar Heel defense ranked eighth in the country with 20 interceptions, just one shy of the school record. Withers came to North Carolina after serving one season as the University of Minnesota's defensive coordinator in 2007.
Withers spent six seasons with the Tennessee Titans from 2001-06 under head coach Jeff Fisher. From 2002-04, Withers helped the Titans defense tally 57 interceptions, which was the most for the franchise over a three-year period since 1993-95. The 57 interceptions also ranked fourth in the AFC and eighth overall during that time. The Titans totaled 21 picks in 2004, including 16 by the secondary.
In 2002, Withers directed a revamped secondary that added safeties Lance Schulters and rookie Tank Williams. The new arrangement helped the defense earn a top 10 ranking and Schulters' six interceptions were the most by a Titans safety since 1993. Withers also developed Andre Dyson into a starter as a rookie in 2001 and helped him total 16 interceptions during his four-year Titan career, including six his final season.
Prior to working with the Titans, Withers was defensive backs coach under Mack Brown at Texas from 1998-2000. Withers joined the Longhorns after three seasons (1995-97) as defensive coordinator at Louisville. While at Louisville, Withers helped current New York Giants All-Pro cornerback Sam Madison earn All-America honors for the Cardinals.

Not really looking to flame.....and I'm not saying it doesn't go on at other schools.....but it's uncanny how many Auburn players have come out and admitted the shite that goes on there.
