What’s the cost per win for both schools? I imagine Cinci comes out better.

You'd be wrong...

Luke Fickell has presided over 14 wins at Cincinnati. Per this article, his salary was $1.9MM for 2017 and $2MM for 2018. So $3.9MM/14 wins = $278,571.43/win

Charlie Strong has presided over 17 wins at USF. Per this article, his salary was $1MM for each year of 2017 and 2018. $2MM/17 wins = $117,647.06/win

Now, in this coming season, Strong's salary jumps to $2.5MM compared to Fickell's $2.3MM. If Cincinnati went undefeated, won the AAC championship game, got into the playoff and won both games, that would still be $6.2MM/31 wins = $193,750/win, which would roughly equal the same amount for Strong if he went 6-6 this year ($4.5MM/23 wins = $195,652.17).

Very wrong...

USFFan

Fickell and Strong are both going to be vastly overpaid this year IMO

Maybe, but with the New OC, i doubt it. Ive seen our new offense... dont blink. Its beautiful. Its gonna take a year to iron out, but we will be better this year and I gurantee well put more points on the board. The defense is coming along nicely too.

Then when we have a new $40 million IPF and operations center, I think recruiting picks up even further.

$20 million for the IPF and another $20 for the footbal operations center. They dont want to build them separately because there are cost savings to do both at the same time.

From what we hear, well have $30 million of it by early next year. Got some commitments in place that just need to pay out.

Ive seen the design...its gonna be really nice, and for the first time in our history we wont have to shut down practices each year. We literally lose weeks of training each year because of this. Been a big need.

Beautiful? You sure you are looking at Nippert?

I assume you have not been to UC since the renovation of Nippert. Either that or your jealousy has clouded your judgement.

BTW, could they at least have TWO pirate ships? Maybe roll out the green and gold one for your games?

the soccer hooligans that have defiled Nippert Stadium these past few years will be out very soon and they can take their scarves, bugles, chants AND cut-outs with them.

Strong's Texas contract ended last December. In your rush to fail at being funny, you didn't bother to actually find out any facts. USF's on the hook for $2.5MM in salary for Strong this year. I'm not brimming with confidence that he'll be worth it...

Definitely not bragging - we're paying $200K more for a coach who failed at Texas than you guys are paying for a coach who failed at Ohio State. Then again, our guy wasn't quite as spectacular a failure...

Fickell to Strong isn’t an apples to apples comparison. Fickell was an interim coach bc of Tressel’s firing.

Fick had the reigns as the interim only and in the shadow of Tattoo-gate and a fired head coach.

Strong was THE head football coach of Texas.

Not a fair comparison. But nice try.

Does this mean there are no plans, that there is no chosen site, that there is no interest or money to go forward. Is USF staying in the Buccaneers stadium permanently. Temple has a plan and a site but I don't know what is holding them up except maybe local political issues and the fact that they may not be greasing enough palms or the right palms at this time to push the OCS through in the middle of Philadelphia. 07-coffee3

We looked hard at when to build it and what it comes down to is our President at the time is very cautious. Shes a VERY smart woman who most dont realize but is incredibly wealthy. In fact after being our Presidnet for 19 years on her last day donated $25 million back to USF to form a new honors college... but I digress.

Her research came back that there is too much instability in college sports to invest the type of money we would spend on a stadium. We wont build mediocre junk, and teh stadium we are looking at is $200-250 million.

I think the line of thinking right now is that an OCS is a luxery since one of the nicest NFL stadiums is less than 8 miles away and our lease isnt costly. We make good money and until the next round of realignment happens, it wasnt fiscally responsible to tap into our endowment or increase student fees to make this happen.

Other schools fans rip on us for it, but we have many recruits who actualy really like the experience. Yes, it sucks being in that large of a stadium when we arent doing well, but the atmosphere cant be matched when we are doing well. When you have nearly 70K fans packed in screaming, its amazing.

So a blessing and a curse. For a young program, this works for now. This increase in contract TV money will help, but our new president may also decide to wait till 2025. See where the chips land. If we get invited to a bigger conference, then it makes sense to invest and build that stadium. If are still here, then we may scale back.

I am all for waiting. I love ray jay even with the damn pirate ship. Were young, were constantly underdogs and weve done well for where we are at. I like that Ive been here from inception. Not many fans can say they saw their program start as a trailer on an empty field... and when we do get an OCS, I get to see that too. I am the first generation of Bulls fans for football. Its kinda cool.
