Message: [QUOTE="tomcat, post: 2086618, member: 961"] The way it works in most places, coaches' contracts and salaries are public information because they are public employees. I worked as a public employee in a state system (AZ, not CT), and my salary was public if anyone cared, which no one did. High profile people like coaches, college presidents and senior officials, etc. -- folks a lot farther up the food chain than I was -- should expect that kind of scrutiny. The enlightened ones welcome it as a sign that there is active media covering them, which is, believe it or not, a good thing. Good government happens in the sunshine, not the dark. [/QUOTE]
