BOL Round Table

EDJR30 I totally agree with you, and those that want to flame you or say yeah you would leave etc... dont have their priorities in order. Your son is your son. He has three years left enjoy it with him. Money is the root of all evil. Im sure Sal doesnt have to worry about paying his utility bill every month. He's already had to miss being with his son in Pitt. these last couple of years. I wouldnt want to look back years later and regret that move. In three years if he is worth a grain of salt as a coach he can still go get another job. FAMILY FIRST!!! Heck I cant even stand to not coach my three kids little league teams much less against them in college. It has nothing to do with it being Tennessee etiher. Sure I hate them but I could not know that what I am doing (coaching my team) is so I can beat my son and his team. Just aint right in my mind. Vinnie is just not coming up and has a bright future, stay and enjoy that with him. Im hoping this is just a case for CNS to get CSS a good pay raise and he stays. Im glad we have CNS and dont want himto ever leave but if you guys think these asst. coaches arent just as important and he can just pick another up off the street to replace CSS you are crazy. It takes time for these staffs to gel and work as one. You better hope that they continue to stay as long as we can keep them.

We lost, IMO, one of our most critical assistants at the end of last year in Joe Pendry, and our OL did just fine. CNS has the ability and the resources to hire the very best. We'll be just fine.

Assistant coaches taking promotions at other schools, IMO, is like underclassmen leaving early for the draft, especially if drafted in the 1st round. The benefits long term for the program outweigh the negatives.

This. My grown son would just have to deal with it.

Well he can get over it when you're at a coaches meeting designing a gameplan to ruin his day on the third saturday of october this year....

maybe Sal knows the d-coordinator job isn't going to open up anytime soon? I've been reading Kirby will only leave for the HC job @ UGA.

For me it would be. The time you spend with your son is more important than money. Your boy will only be here another 3 years tops and b/c you are a coach you won't even get to see him play. IMO there is no way I'd do it.

It's not like Sal hasn't made alot of money and not like he isn't going to continue to make alot of money.

100% increase in your salary gauranteed over 3 years and a big step toward your ultimate goal of being a head coach.

He also most likely has a relationship already with Dooley and would want to help him succeed. It seems like a no brainer to me...
