[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 685718, member: 1776"] If we want to play college basketball we are going to have to be willing to pay - and i don't mean under the table. Only Jim Christian and his staff make less money in the ACC than Pastner and his staff. Mack was hired at L'ville at $4M/yr for 7 years base salary before incentives. Mike Anderson was making $2.55M per year at Ark before he left for St. Johns. Prohm is making almost $2.5M at Iowa St. If you want to hire any coach that is not a mid major coach the salary starts around $3M for the HC and another $1M for his staff. Even a good mid major coach will require a salary higher than what we are currently paying Pastner. More importantly, until GT gets a final confirmation from the NCAA on its penalties no coach worth hiring is going to even give GT a listen. Just due to money reasons and NCAA penalty reasons i fully expect GT will need to keep Pastner for at least 1 more season. Also, GT isn't 100% clean, i'm not sure any major college BB program is, but if you think GT is swimming in the deep end of the pool that isn't even close to the truth. GT got hit overly hard for its transgressions because the NCAA needed someone to hammer with everything going on. But GT doesn't contribute anything significantly to the NCAA revenue wise (which makes 90% of its revenue off of March Madness) so there is no harm in hitting GT hard. [/QUOTE]
