How much did that win cost, coach?
Published 12/5/2007 at Fanblogs.com
The USA Today steals a page from the Coaches Hot Seat playbook in rolling out the cost-per-win for Division I-A teams. The rationale is simple - divide the number of wins by the coach's salary - to determine the cost per win. Cost Per Win for 2007 DI-A Teams (as compiled by USA Today) Rank -- Team -- Coach -- Salary -- Wins -- Cost Per Win 1 -- Minnesota Tim Brewster $1,000,000 1 $1,000,000 2 - Alabama Nick Saban $3,503,200 6 $583,867 3 - Duke Ted Roof ...

The High Cost of Losing at Minnesota
Published 12/7/2007 by dawizofodds at The Wiz of Odds
Year One of the Tim Brewster Experiment has been nothing short of a disaster at Minnesota. The Golden Gophers won one game — in overtime against Miami (Ohio) — and finished by losing their last 10, including a loss at home to North Dakota State. USA Today published a spread this week on coaches salaries for 2007. The paper divided the salary of each coach by the number of victories to get a cost-per-win for each Division I-A team. You guessed it, Minnesota's topped the list at $1 million a victory, which is Brewster's 2007 salary. Second ...

Football University: Rant of the day, head coaches are overpaid or underpaid
Published 12/8/2007 by AEM at NFL Draft University
... I found this article on USA Today and thought it was very interesting to see how much football coaches cost nowadays. But more importantly, how much a coach costs their school for each win. It was extremely interesting to see that Nick Saban, with six wins, cost his school over $580,000 a win. But Minnesota’s Tim Brewster cost Minnesota $1,000,000 a win, however Brewster only won one game this season. Urban Meyer was the 9 th most expensive on the list, and he had 9 wins. Imagine if he has 4 or 5? He would have been the second most expensive coach of the year. But now that ...

... Maybe he needs a raise. USA Today has published their annual cost per win breakdown, dividing a head coach's salary by the number of wins on the field. This year's ignominious champ is former Longhorn assistant coach Tim Brewster, who guided Minnesota to one win. His price? A cool million. Number two, not surprisingly, is Nick Saban who earned $583,867 for each of the Crimson Tide's six wins. ...

Hundred Dolla Billz, Yall

Check this out.  The 2nd coming of the Bear is only topped by the Minnesota doucebag.  Wow.  Nick Saban is the second worst coach in Division 1-A going by these numbers.  And losses to LA-Monroe don’t help out this average.  This financial strain will soon catch up to UAT.  They are still paying for the Tuberville Wing addition to Bahr-Denny Stadium, and Bammer merchandise sales have taken a drop recently.  The hundred dollar hand-shakes are becoming less and less padded, not because of the ‘Roid’s desire to stay off of probation, but because they can’t afford to.  The ...
