Salary Data Point - Va Tech baseball coach

[Mr_Twister]

The Va Tech baseball coach John Szefc is a Goshen/Middletown NY native with impressive credentials, especially recruiting. He is the kind of leader and rebuilder we sorely need. I understand that he would never likely consider Rutgers, but his background and resume should give our AD a clue that we need someone who has been outside the NJ/NY/PA area.

Salary data point ... Szefc had an annual base salary of $251000 at Maryland. His salary bumped to $425000 moving to Va Tech.
Check the geographic diversity on the Va Tech roster ...

2019 College Baseball RPIs. Lots of programs above us whose coach might take on the challenge of leading a Big Ten program.

Geographic diversity, yes....ethnic diversity is another story!

Goshen is more like Va Tech than New Brunswick

I’m curious- would you take 1/3 pay cut in your chosen profession and also move to an area that is 30% more expensive?

I do not expect him to have any interest in Rutgers. Like his career path. Hope we find someone with a resume with similar elements.
