I'll never understand why people complain about how much athletes and coaches are paid, but nobody ever says anything about actors and talk show hosts making even more for less work.

People who complain about any of them just do not understand economics. They get paid that much because the bring in that much more money for the organization they work for. This isn't charity, companies pay them so they can make money. It is simple.I'll never understand why people complain about how much athletes and coaches are paid, but nobody ever says anything about actors and talk show hosts making even more for less work.
There was a tweet by someone at the U of Miami-Florida admissions office about a spike in graduate studies applications after their appearance on ESPN Gameday this weekend. I think Alabama has seen a huge increase in enrollment since Nick Saban was hired.It's illogical if people really understand what is going on.
The next head coach at Nebraska isn't going to get paid $5,000,000+ to simply teach kids how to play a sport. They are managers of a very large organization and the most public position as a representative of the University and possibly the state. He is also responsible for being successful in bringing in a very large portion of the entire budget for the athletic department...which, is a marketing arm of the entire University.
You put someone in that type of position in a public company and they make similar. ALSO.....if they aren't successful, their tenure is very short.
Shouldn't be long from now for the Florida job to be filled.
Just curious, has Moos made any statement about the men's basketball team? A legacy that has dipped well below mediocrity basically forever?

Just a gut feeling, or because of chatter?
Correct. You better bet your a$$ if we ever were to win another national title, I'd drop over $500 on national championship gear just to boast.A winning program brings in a lot of money. So its important to pay a good coach to make sure you win. Winning puts butts in seats, people buy gear, bowl game $$ etc etc. Not to mention coaches work very long hours, time away from families out recruiting, speaking obligations, booster events. Etc. Not sure how much they deserve- but it is a demanding profession.
How do you know?They are flying to meet with Chip tonight. Got SEC clearance.
What is the credibility on this?Looks like it may be down to us vs UCF. If this source is credible at all, UF is out of the fight.
