Anything we offer will be a raise You can't compare salaries across conferences. Coaches in the SEC make by and large more than their counterparts across the country; which means that there are baselines for pay, so even though this guy was making $400-600K (or whatever), you can't realistically just throw him a few more dollars and call it a raise when that more or less still makes him about the lowest paid coordinator in the conference. I think that ~$800K is probably the lowest you're getting Yurcich at, especially considering the job uncertainty here. True story: back when Scott Fountain was working a desk job under Chizik he was making something like ~$250K. That is why he never went to go actually coach elsewhere: most schools around the country don't pay position coaches $250K a year, which means that for him to leave he would actually be taking a paycut at most of the schools that would actually be interested in hiring him. He'd have to have landed a job at another SEC school to get that type of money, which is why when he ultimately went back to coaching it was at Auburn.

I don't think this would be the appropriate time to fire a HC though. That doesn't mean that they aren't in control of the situation. No disrespect but this isn't UM or NS here. Gus is expandable and if he doesn't meet criteria he will be gone. I think he knows that and they know that. He has no leverage . This is a program that fired a head coach two years after he won its first national championship since Eisenhower was President. Gus is indeed expendable, and I have no doubt there are criteria to meet. That said, undermining his decisions (especially in hiring assistants) is likely to only lead to resentment. If they lack faith in his ability to do what he needs to do or hire who he needs to hire, they should have just dealt out his buyout now instead of later.

aufan57 922 Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 If Auburn should hire Mike Yurcich, he should bring Kasey Dunn with him to coach up our outstanding young receivers. Dunn has a few recruiting skills to go along with his coaching abilities. He would be a major upgrade. http://www.cowboysrideforfree.com/2016/8/26/12620010/kasey-dunn-the-man-behind-the-hands-ncaa-oklahoma-state-football-washington-college-coach-preseason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kodi, but I think that title was given to get him to return to AU. Can't remember what exact title He had at AZ ST. but he had just taken the job when Gus asked him to come back to AU. It also was needed to justify his salary because they had to give him more than ASU had just given him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will the NCAA add a 10th coach soon enough that we could do that without firing a coach? If not, who do you suggest we should fire (or move to an off-field position)?

No. 10th coach will not be added until April at the earliest. And even then I see Gus going defense for the hire balancing assistants at 5 for O & 5 for D. Hiring another O coach would make it 6 O & 4 D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realize he is one of Malzahn's guys and he will probably be coaching here as long as Gus is the Head Coach. If Auburn is serious about upgrading the passing attack, we need an experienced coach, with a track record of developing receivers and a proven recruiter.

1974AUgrad 23 Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 I just like the idea of the successful pair (Yurcich and qb coach (and OC) with his successful WR coach Kasey Dunn. They wouldn't have to spend time learning to work together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel for Kodi if that happens, but big time college football it is not uncommon. Who knows, if CMY doesn't retain Kodi, he might end up at UConn.
