I saw this posted on the SB Board. We certainly are getting our money's worth to this point.

We were two missed field goals from our CPW leading the nation.

I'm not sure leading this category is a good thing. Only highlights how underpaid our coaches are.

Another way to look at it is that a whole lot of schools are getting screwed.

That's a fair point. While we may be low on the spectrum, there are certainly several that are high. I wish coaching staffs had a salary cap as it's ridiculous how high their salaries have gotten. If players weren't playing for free, their salaries would probably not have gotten so out of control.

Why do you think so many coaches and ADs tie themselves in knots trying to come up with a rationale for why players shouldn't be paid? It can actually be comical at times.

Just curious. Are you in favor of paying track team members, both M & W, M & W Basketball, Cross Country, "Raslers," et al?

Not necessarily posting to you directly.

I am not in favor of any athlete getting paid any more than they already are. I also can not think of any collage Div 1 head coach who is not overpaid. The whole system is WAY out of control. If you look at how things are going it is not sustainable.
