fourthvision 0 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 he will, I think people are skeptical but think of Lebo as franklin and Barbee as Malzahn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey 16,638 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I don't think it's too much. He's pretty close, on paper at least, to the ideal target for our search. Offer him less and Depaul was waiting, check in hand.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WDEAUB 0 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Of course we could've got the N Iowa coach for just over $400k. But that's not who I wanted. I wanted T-Barb! I will do my part to support him and I just hope he does his part to support the AU family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offer him less and Depaul was waiting, check in hand.... I agree. He was not going to come cheap. It was the right decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IManAUBURNlifer 0 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Good coaches require good money. We got a good coach and he is making good money. This is a statement that we needed to make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUBigCat 17 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 That's a heck of a jump in salary! I thought I read that he was making around $300k before, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InfernoOrangeSS 321 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 That's a heck of a jump in salary! I thought I read that he was making around $300k before, right? That is correct and I hope he is so successful that we offer him a pay raise after his first season. I like that JJ goes after coaches that are excellent recruiters.

guerra aguila 0 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Recruiting/Coaching = success. I dont think Lebo was a bad recruiter entirely... he just didnt seem to be a great coach at times... I am glad that we hired Barbee, I think he will do a good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InfernoOrangeSS 321 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I think the AU job was beyond Lebo. Bring on Barbee! War Eagle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoALtiger 3,867 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Quite the jump in base salary, I bet it was a great day in the Barbee household! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
