Coach Scott Satterfield

[Lobot]

I need to clarify my comments for you and London.
I was not endorsing Gino, just stating that we invested an extra 3.5M in Satt by paying his buyout, hoping that hes the right guy. I hope we are dang sure because if there was doubt, we could have stayed internal and gone with Gino the known entity with no buyout cost if we were gonna roll the dice. $3.5M is still a lot of money and we don't have endlessly deep pockets. Its probably 3X what we will get for this years bowl game and thats before conference sharing. The money from Wisc was nice but it would have been great if it wasn't a swap that we then had to send to Louisville.
By the way, if I am reading things right, Deion is paying his own buyout not Colorado. Thats the way it should be so these coaches have some vested interest in honoring their contracts, but thats just not the world we live in anymore.
I hope that clarifies my comments. Sorry it wasn't clearer initially.

That 3.5M came from Fickell's buyout. Net zero for UC.

Here's something you didn't see coming. Satterfield's twitter handle is stuck as CoachSattUofL because Elon Musk is an insecure crybaby and couldn't handle being trolled by people impersonating him. Nobody with a verified account can change the name and handle on their accounts right now due to this.

FYI. Adam Rittenberg of ESPN wrote the following about Satterfield:

"Although Satterfield's departure is abrupt, he never seemed long for the Louisville job. Things haven't been great since 2019, when Satterfield won ACC Coach of the Year honors in his first season there. Satterfield's dalliance with South Carolina in December 2020 stung Louisville fans, a group of whom would never forgive him. Still, the Cardinals recruited well throughout the summer, returned talented quarterback Malik Cunningham and seemingly had a chance to challenge in the ACC...... He is a good coach who went 51-24 at Appalachian State, his alma mater but always seemed much better suited to a job in his home state of North Carolina."

For what it's worth.

I understand that and I must be a complete idiot that after 3 tries I can't explain this post.
Mathematically speaking, $3.5 Wisconsin IN minus 3.5 Louisville OUT = net zero I agree.
OR 3.5 Wisconsin in, hire Gino and surround him with great assistants, NOTHING out = 3.5M gain for UC

Don't worry - I'm with you! :-)

It's like when you see ads for "Vote for Issue Whatever - it WON'T raise your taxes!!"

Well yes, that is true, but if you DIDN'T vote for it, it would LOWER your taxes. :-)

That doesn't mean it's the right call, since in this case at the end of day, the right person is the right person. If this is a good hire, then we all will not care about the 3.5M that was spent

Some big names in there. Scrolling down through twitter, I noticed that the AAC logo is now off the turf at Nippert and Corey Kiner is staying.
