Bianchi mentioned Coach Mac’s salary last week. He said something like “just charge it to the SEC Network!”

A 750k raise and over 4 million in salary? Well, second only to the stupidity of how much we paid Muschamp not to coach, and then forgot to put in a one-year non-compete to keep him from stealing our top recruits. I would think that - during the original negotiations that took place only a year ago - someone considered the possibilities that the Gators would win the SEC East, the SEC title, earn a playoff spot and/or win the Championship game. Each of these possibilities would have come with an appropriate bonus that everyone was happy with. To pay that bonus, and then give a raise is equivalent to paying the bonus twice. I have to wonder if the UAA has an attorneys on staff, or if Foley breathes orange and blue incense, goes into a trance, and agrees to the first vision that crosses his mind. Between the O-Dome renovations and the needed football facility upgrades (such as the dorms), this money clearly could have been used elsewhere without violating NCAA rules. -Zeb -- -- 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.
