[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 759767, member: 2426"] Who was trying to get him before he came here? He was hired in at GT with a $1.6 million salary and an assistant pool of $1.4 million. I remember rumors that Auburn tried to hire him away after his first or second year, but I don't recall any bidding wars before he came here. According to CPJ, he didn't leave because he promised his wife that his daughter would be able to finish high school in the Atlanta area if they moved to the Atlanta area to take the GT job. (Although I have never heard him say it was Auburn, he just described it as a football powerhouse school.) CPJ was limited in assistant coaches salary pool when he first came and wasn't able to hire the DC that he wanted to hire. I seriously doubt that if he didn't have a family concern about moving again, GT could not have matched the salary, could not have come close to matching the assistant coaches salary pool, and couldn't match the facilities at Auburn. GT did raise his salary after 2008 to $2.4 million, but that was reportedly much less than what Auburn was offering. His assistant pool was raised after 2008 from $1.4 to $1.5 million. In 2008, Pete Carroll made $4.4 million. Saban and Les Miles made $3.75 million. After the increase in 2008, GT was paying in the mid-range of P5 head coaches salaries. [/QUOTE]
