Can't believe we didn't rob Peter to pay Scott that little. If true.

Re: Scott Gone
There's no way that's accurate. His agent is much, much smarter than that. You'll see somewhere in the middle of your expectation and that low-ball number. I'm betting around $2M/per for 4-5 years.Black Saturday wrote: ↑Mon Dec 03, 2018 4:15 pmI have to eat a little crow on the pay, thought it would be more. If what you guys are saying, that's bottom of ACC, his agent does suck for going to a dumpster fire for that little, but it was up to him. Thought he'd get closer to $3M. Hope he doesn't pull a Sparky, and strip our roster.

Re: Scott Gone
I shoulda prefaced this by saying source not known. I assume the 1.2 would be his base if this is correct.

If the official announcement includes pay that low, I'll eat your helping of crow for you. I'll already be eating plenty of my own.

Re: Scott Gone
I assume this is true, as many expected. What an accomplishment for SS. Only 59 people in the world are coaching a P5 football program and he’s one of them. Well deserved!
Excited to see who DG brings in!

Re: Scott Gone
Wouldn't Satt be contractually obligated to get DG's permission to accept? Or at least obligated to inform him? So with DG saying he hasn't heard, shouldn't we cool it until tomorrow at 4:30?

Re: Scott Gone
He has 42 twitter followers. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say he isn't the most reliable source. He may be right but I'm not gonna just take his word as gospel.

Re: Scott Gone
Guys, that tweet is some random guy with 42 followers. Scott is not getting $1.2 million from Louisville. Use your heads.

Re: Scott Gone
also, didn't think he'd actually get the job, considering others deemed ahead of him by all the football talk show time I've logged---appchicago wrote: ↑Mon Dec 03, 2018 4:18 pmDon't eat a thing yet.

Re: Scott Gone
DG will. As I said in another thread, we will be just fine. We have the talent and the expectation is not lessened one bit. We can do something special next year and I believe DG will find us someone who can do that.weavneerfan wrote: ↑Mon Dec 03, 2018 4:02 pmBest of luck to him. Now let's move on. In DG we trust!

Won't believe it until some credible sources come out, like Ethan Joyce or someone else.

Re: Scott Gone
100% correct. He did not strip the roster. Those players all decided to just go with him.sixtoes9134 wrote: ↑Mon Dec 03, 2018 4:25 pmSparky didn't strip the roster.Black Saturday wrote: ↑Mon Dec 03, 2018 4:15 pmI have to eat a little crow on the pay, thought it would be more.

Re: Scott Gone
I would fire Sexton if this was true. UL has some major hurdles to overcome and at 1.2 mil, I would be waiting for Ashton Kutcher to jump out from behind a curtain. Satt would not even be doubling his current base.... no way this is true.BurlingtonApp wrote: ↑Mon Dec 03, 2018 4:22 pmGuys, that tweet is some random guy with 42 followers.

Re: Scott Gone
Most up on the mountain felt this was happening for sure since last Wednesday. It is going to be an official done deal tomorrow. DG is not going to scramble because he has supposedly had a plan in place for a while now and already has names in min to replace Satt.GregPercussion wrote: ↑Mon Dec 03, 2018 4:28 pmWon't believe it until some credible sources come out, like Ethan Joyce or someone else.

Re: Scott Gone
I recall Bobby Fuller leaving AFTER spring practice when he discovered Jerry Moore was going to run the power I and Fuller was a throwing QB.

Re: Scott Gone
I keep looking on Louisville based news sites and UL
Footballl isn’t even mentioned on there.
