Is it just me or is $7.5 million per not that insane?

Jimbo has won a national title and almost 10+ games a season. What did people expect A&M to offer? Hell, Dan Mullen just signed on for $6million per year and he doesn't have a resume anywhere near Jimbo's.

baw can afford a bunch of New Iberia Haircuts

He's the best coach on the market. He costs what he costs. I'd rather throw big money around on a big name than go discount shopping in the value bin

He still won’t be the highest paid coach.

Dog, if that's helps you justify the Jumbo bull shite. Bravo for you my man

Its not insane... BAMA pays Saban more & they making great return on investment.

Depends on the buyout. What happens in 5-6 years and he doesn’t win and A&M owes him $35 million

Its not, its just money.
LSU could afford it but we have a jackass running the show. We currently pay around 10 million to our football staff

7.5 isn’t crazy, but a 10 year guaranteed contract is insane.
That’s assuming that the contract really is 10 years, 7.5 mill

If true, the fAggies are going all in. Talk about pressure!

I don’t think the dollars per year is that crazy. The length is, and I am interested to see if the whole thing is guaranteed. Jimbo had a $40m buyout already on his current deal at FSU. He’s a top 5 coach in CFB now as far as resume and will be the third highest paid coach in the country

He costs whatever the market dictates.
It just shows A&M’s commitment to swing for the fences and go after their guy. Who knows? We may could have actually gotten him if Alleva wasn’t such a throbbing pussy.

Did I miss it where he signed? He had a 7+MM offed last season. 10 years? That’s stupid. Keep Home.
Posted on 11/30/17 at 9:59 pm to NIH
7.5 not that insane but fully guaranteeing it for 10 years is definitely a risk
Posted on 11/30/17 at 10:03 pm to NIH
For ten years to a guy that has a losing record in a worse conference with more talent shite yeah it's insane

It's only insane if instead you want to pay some fat loser $3.5m to let his coaches coach.
Posted on 11/30/17 at 10:21 pm to NIH
A very small percentage of people make $7.5M in their entire life.

Today 10 years and $7.5 mill sounds insane but in a few years it won't. The market for proven winners is already off the charts. When you should worry is when you pay a ton of guaranteed long term money to guys that haven't shown they can consistently win big, that's what we did with Sumlin.
The other issue is A&M has the resources to absorb it if it goes South in a few years.
