Message: [QUOTE="DefenseBB, post: 3494149, member: 7492"] So if I may ask, where is your source for all these top 10 coaches salaries? I agree that Kelly is probably on the outside of the top 10 but his $970k is pretty good. I think the average salary in the SEC was $700k, the ACC was close to $825 but that was top heavy with MM and Jeff. The Big12 is like $700K with Sherry Coale being a complete outlier at $1.1 mil. I think you are being mislead due to the Texas AD overpaying GG a top $1.25 mil back in 2007, which I think was top 3 at the time. While Graves has nice history with Gonzaga and has had a good run at Oregon with Sabrina, he hasn't quite etched his way into the top 10, though he should be almost there and I think he will get compensated appropriately as WCBB is a focus sport for Oregon. While Softball was elite and a national contender, it raise zero revenue. I find it absurd that Oklahoma pays Patty Gasso $1 million plus per year. Similarly, Texas over paid for Mike White. So besides White and your implying that Graves is underpaid yet you offer no proof, who else is Oregon being cheap with? Like I have said many times in the past two days, I like opinions based on facts and data. Show me how Grave salary is egregious when the data I have shows it is well above average. [/QUOTE]
