Jamey Chadwell, HC Liberty U

He already gets a pretty hefty salary at Liberty if I'm not mistaken.
$4 million/yr. Be aware that we are now in the first year of our new TV contract and we can easily pay double that. The same goes for all the Big Ten & SEC schools. We'll be getting $75-100 million in TV and playoff money while Liberty gets zip.

Here's another example - Matt Campbell HC Iowa State, currently 7-0 and ranked #10. Schools in the Big-12 and ACC make about a third the TV money that the Big Ten and SEC are currently making. Now, ISU is a Purdue clone. Not much football tradition, Land Grant, big Ag, Engineering & vet school, sitting out in the middle of cornfields. Campbell recently got a RAISE to $4 million. We could easily double or triple that salary with the new TV contract.
  • After completing a 9-3 season in 2020, Campbell and Iowa State agreed on a new contract extension that would keep him with the school through the 2028 season. Under the terms of that contract, according to USA Today, Campbell earns an annual base salary of $4 million — including for the 2024 college football campaign.

You sound like you want to steal a coach from a school very much like Purdue.

We now have the money to do it with the Big Ten TV contract. The Big-12 schools are only getting chump change in TV revenue. Why shouldn't we pay big bucks to get someone like Matt Campbell?

I am resistant to the new system of buying away players and coaches, although I guess the latter isn't new.
 
Just because you have money doesn’t mean you should just give it away foolishly! Isn’t that what Purdue already did with Hazell and Walters and the extension they gave Brohm!

Spending a lot of money doesn’t equal success. Just ask Jerry jones!

Spending money on a good football coach is a wise investment. We tried penny-pinching with Hazell, Hope, Colletto, Akers and Burtnett. It doesn't work.

Didn’t hazel only get like 2 million something? Walters was a dumbass hire who had no business being considered for the job. Exetending a coach like brohm is a smart move.
