[QUOTE="Whiskey_Clear, post: 169553, member: 735"] Mbob waiting to extend could have been a non factor altogether if he had played the PR differently. And if he had played it differently I probably would have no complaint with him. But he didn't, so I do have a big problem with him. Packed or not....you ain't getting more than 60k inside Autzen. Know does Oregon get the max out of that 58k? With higher per ticket prices? Maybe. Probably. They have had a very high level of success lately so demand should be high. Oregon TV revenue, like most schools outside of Notre Dame. Is dictated by ESPN contracts with affiliated conferences. TV revenue is the biggest piece of the pie by far. Both for total revenue and for head coach salary. Head Coach can get a big chunk from post game coaches shows also. Which brings me to another disadvantage at Tech. Tech coaches will never be able to compete with other schools when it comes to football post game shows. Our piece of the media pie is what? 20%? The vast majority of sidewalk fans are butt sniffers or affiliated with out of state schools. And Tech coaches will never be able to compete when it comes to ad revenue selling F150 commercial ads or bellawood. That being the case, do you not want to level the playing field for our head coach, whoever he is, with a higher annual salary? If not you better think of some way to make them want to stay. I don't honestly think Oregon gets huge revenue from merchandising or merchandise licensing. I may very well be wrong as I have not researched this at all. What Oregon does have is a very special relationship with the founder of Nike. There isn't much chance Tech, or any school other than Under Armour or OK St., can equal that. My understanding of Tech though is that it has always been very...selective....when it comes to licensing merchandise. Maybe this is a revenue stream that could be expanded. I dunno. Again the problem here is the relatively small number of fans we have purchasing said merchandise. Bottom line regardless is this. If we really want to compete at an elite level, we have to spend accordingly. We will never be able to outspend the big programs. I concede that. What we can do is create other forms of incentives. Giving your head coach assurances in job security, more control of the football program (staff salaries etc) are some easy examples. Otherwise you better get damn creative.
