It looks like Kirk will get to choose his staff. Not sure if Aurich will be retained. He left a lot to be desired as the OL coach and was brought in by Gleeson.
Your title says “Kick”, not Kirk.
TheKnightReport - Rutgers Football to hire Kirk Ciarrocca as next Offensive Coordinator
Rutgers Football has decided to make Kirk Ciarrocca as their new Offensive Coordinator.rutgers.rivals.com
I know you have not been keeping up, but that is not my title. One of the esteemed moderators changed the title, and I would never dare change a title changed by a moderator. I have done that in the past, only to have the title changed back to the title of moderator's choosing.
1.4 vs 1.75 plus a 300k signing bonus. It’s not that close
I’m the last person to say that to and I’ve even mentioned OPM syndrome when it comes to AD spending on coaches. I’m sorry there’s not a huge difference between 1.4 and 1.75…it’s not massive gulf in compensation.
It's chump change to fans who drive F150 Lightning Lariats. 😉
It’s 80% of Riley’s salary and 350K isn’t chump change but that’s not the point. They’re in the same ballpark. It’s not like 1M vs 2M or some big disparity. If you have 80 bucks or 100 bucks is the 20 buck difference some huge gap.
That’s pretty much my point, they’re both in the higher tier of coordinator salaries. It’s not some massive gulf.
I want to work for you. 25% increase is really not that far off. Put it this way. You make 750k and I make 1mm. Close or not?
Going with the assumption that those would both be premium salaries in a company, from the employer's perspective it's similar in that they would want high quality results and performance from both employees with that salary.
I think I get your thinking now. 25% is not far if it’s a big number or small number. To me, 25% is far apart. With in 10% is not far apart. Don’t want to beat a dead horse. One last example. Gleeson was supposed to make 1.025 so it’s not far from KC’s 1.4?
At one time Gleeson at 1M was a premium salary, now maybe still somewhat but not like it was just 3 years ago. Coaching salary inflation is ludicrous.
The difference between the two will cover the cost of bringing Wagner in for a game.
Kind of tells you something that Gleeson as of now doesn't have a job, even as a position coach, yet.
Keep in mind, we will be paying Gleeson $1 million next year as well, so in fact, RU will be paying $2.4 million next year for our offense..
Are you suggesting we should’ve kept Gleeson to save money? Otherwise, I don’t know why you would bring that up.
You keep bringing up the difference between $1.4 mil and $1.7 mil, I was simply setting the record straight as to how much we will actually be paying for our offense next year… $2.4 million
Yes, I’m arguing that it’s a meaningful difference between 1.75 vs 1.4. The only reason to bring up Gleeson’s pay is if you want to keep him. Otherwise it’s irrelevant. Clemson fired their OC also with more years on the contract.
It’s not irrelevant at all… we are not even close to clemson’s level, and yet we are paying close to what they pay their OC. I brought up Gleeson bc it is incredibly relevant to the underlying issue that we will be paying $2.4 million for offensive coaches chosen by Greg Schiano.. let’s see if it’s worth it
Again, we are not paying “close to” to Clemson. I added to my post earlier. If you do the apples to apples and add what Clemson owes their previous OC, it’s 3.6mm to our 2.4mm. Only a 50% difference.
Bro, if you are going to make that kind of argument it’s clear you are so dense to the situation you can’t look at it objectively. There’s a reason you are using Clemson and not Ohio State or Penn State. Reality is we will be paying more for our offensive staff than those programs.
Bruh, I like that you said objectively and then say that RU is spending more money on coaching staff than PSU and OSU.
Maybe, although if you are getting paid anyway you might hold out for a job you really want
Agreed. But most of the time coaches want to coach. Especially when you're as young as he is.
I guess it’s only 4 F150 Lightings Lariats (before you factor in the gas savings 😀)
The longer the gap, the bigger discount on your previous salary.
