[QUOTE="Deleted member 186590, post: 1567393"] The two programs we want to emulate are Wisconsin and Iowa- programs that can win consistently without having to beat OSU, UM and ND for recruits. It’s logical to hire someone who actually knows what that takes and how to do it- the hire makes a lot of sense from that standpoint there are a lot of reasons to pay $4M+ when you have the budget to do so- it establishes the program as a top 20 paying job and draws more interest than it would otherwise and helps you keep your coach if you do have a little success- I don’t mind the money at all [/QUOTE]
