Satt locked in for 5 years!

[wdhsbcsasu]

Not too bad of a package, very obtainable and reasonable 835,000 deal for this coming year. Hopefully we can keep him for sometime. Knowing Coach well, he and his wife do love this place.

I really like the structure of this package with emphasis on staying at App, keeping GPA and APR respectable, going to and winning bowl games, winning 9 games or more , and extra emphasis on winning the Sunbelt Conference each season.
In 2021, if Coach Satt can win 9 games or more, keep our GPA close to 3.0, keep APR in check, play P5 opponent away, go to and win bowl game, and be conference champion, he will have moved his salary from base of $425,000 to just over $1,000,000 for that season. Let's Go Satt !

Gillin is doing everything he can to make it tough for Satt to leave. That's all we can ask.

Agreed, and if you look at all of the incentives available in the addendum, if he continues to build the program and have success his compensation goes up accordingly. Also wanted to point out that a major piece of his comp is coming from the Yosef Club so that's something we can all have an impact on by upping our donation levels. If we want to keep Satt, and have the ability to attract a quality replacement if he were to leave, we're going to need that Yosef Club component to continue to grow...

[MtnDevil95]

I really want to believe that Satt will stay on the mountain for the rest of his career, and keep a double digit wins per season average with several conference championships, better than .500 bowl win percentage including multiple trips and wins in the New Year's Six . . . however the grim reality of the economics of college football is looming in the future, near or mid-term. I feel confident over the next few seasons the coaching carousel will have his name in the headlines on many short lists. You don't have to look far to see P5 coaches with short leashes going into 2017 . . . Doren down at NC State . . .

I thought Yosef funds could only be used for athletic scholarships or Yosef administrative salaries. Did that change or have coaching salaries always been allowed?

Yosef funds are not being applied to his coaching duties.

Thanks, EasHall. I didn't know Yosef funds could be used on facilities either. Still doesn't mention coaches' salaries. Guess that comes under programmable support.

Rick's post:lso wanted to point out that a major piece of his comp is coming from the Yosef Club so that's something we can all have an impact on by upping our donation levels.
I guess they are somehow separating fund raising from coaching duties.

Yeah, that's a pretty wide-ranging phrase. I'm sure there are others who know more, but as far as I know booster club funds can be used for pretty much anything athletics-related, although of course funding scholarships is the top priority.

I mean, technically perhaps not. But let's be serious - they aren't paying him up to $200K just to show up at a couple dozen YC events.

Did I read this correctly? Only 25K bonus for making a CPF game?? IF, by some major miracle/ Act of God, App landed a CFP spot they better give Satt a million dollar bonus.

As a parting gift?

ha wouldn't you say he would have earned it? You couldn't put a value on what a spot in that game would be worth.

[Rekdiver]

I'd Make the incentive 20% of the CFP purse...split between all the coaches

This from the article contradicts that:

Satterfield will be getting an annual fund payment from the Yosef Club that starts at $100,000 the first year and grows to $220,000 for the final year of the contract in return for coachingand for helping raise funds for the Mountaineer Impact Initiatives.

[hapapp]

I stand corrected.

[Saint3333]

Since 2009 the Yosef Club has been able to supplement coaching salaries, this may be the first time they've used this option.

[NoLongerLurking]

The future value of 850,000 invested conservatively in 20 years is not too shabby. I hope he stays. App State should hook him up with a good financial advisor. Stay in Boone, Scott!

[ASU84]

Correct me if I am wrong but I believe Satt is a University employee? And being a University employee, doesn't that make him eligible for state retirement? If that is the case, I believe based on his highest 4 consecutive salaries that he would be in pretty good shape.
