I agree if the season plays out well. Hard to say now though considering SEC play just started. He has better talent than most of the conference due to a single class, so I’d like to think he earns it this season.

Earlier to day there was a thread bitching about ticket prices being too high.

LSU's should lower ticket prices, yet WW should get more money? Rantard economics.

Hard to argue with all but a couple ahead of him.

Calipari making 8 million per year is surprising to me. He is not exactly coach Nick Saban.

I like WW but how about we actually wait and see how he stacks up for more than 1.1 seasons before throwing the bank at him

Rick Barnes received an extension after last season and is the second highest paid coach in the league now. AAV of $3.5M/yr.

Take away Cal and he's right in the mix for highest paid.

If he continues to win, the money will soon follow. Lots and lots of it!

It's only 400k between 2nd and 8th. It's not that bad. We have a great year, bump him to 3 million.

Sweet 16 is an expectation. If he exceeds that expectation then we can consider it.

What was dales highest salary?


As in ranking? Cant compare dollars paid in 1980’s-90’s. Saban was a $1 million coach when he started at LSU I believe.

Let WW win the west/compete for SEC and make some tourney runs THEN open checkbook. He is doing well but lets talk in about 60 days

2.5 million is not chump change and is very competitive with other SEC Head Coaches.

Let Will Wade actually win something before we start rewarding him for nothing.
