Zeb, I have seen this comment before but after-tax (State), the 6 million is 5.67 million. I would happily take the difference. 1.67 million per year would buy quite a bit of comfort even in Oklahoma.
On the other hand, how much money does someone need? Maybe he could use his savings and buy the Thunder. (Estimated value of $967 million according to Forbes). You have to wonder what his net worth is? Over the 19 years at Florida, he has done well.

A five-year deal worth $35 million or more might not out of the question for Donovan, who recently signed a one-year extension through the 2020 season that pushed his annual average salary to $4 million.” Seriously; after taxes what is the significant difference between these two amounts? Also, short of Scrooge McDucking a swimming pool, what on earth could anyone do with that much money in Oklahoma? I am not making this up - one of the top things to do in Oklahoma City is the National Banjo museum. The other is to go look at the basketball arena - the place he would be working at. What a great day off - “Honey, let’s go look at my workplace." My brother-in-law’s sister lives in Oklahoma. She is a new grandmother. The child’s name? "Poppy Capri.” I am not making this up. Only in Oklahoma. If Billy D. wants to make 6 million a year and coach the Lakers or the Knicks, so be it. At least he would be able to spend some of that money at a decent restaurant. Oklahoma City? I'll spot him the money for as much Golden Corral that he could eat. Who would want to be a multimillionaire if it meant living in Oklahoma? I’ll take Door Number 3, please. -- -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "GatorTalk" group.
