Lake made $500,000 last year. The top of the PAC-12 Cordinator market is $750,000. USC (faggy wink) and Stanfords coaching salaries aren't made public.
Cal is fucking broke and Lake would need $600,000 to stay even with what he made this year, factoring California state income tax and the high cost of living in the Bay Area.
But a PAC-12 Cordinator title and $800,000 probably gets the deal done.
No way Cal can pay to get Jimmy Lake, Sirmon, or Gregory to be DC...they are broke, have to pay Sonny "Toughest Team (not mine) Wins" Dykes, and going to have to pay Wilcox significant $$$. They are going to have to get cheap, up and coming guys as coordinators, especially on the defensive side where Wilcox already has experience. Wilcox would be stupid to blow his limited coaching budget wad on a DC.
And that DC job isn't going to get Jimmy or anyone else visibility because if Cal's D does well Wilcox gets the credit because he's a D coach, and if they don't they will be door-ass-out and blamed (instead of Wilcox).
And Cal is a graveyard for coaches...even Wilcox would be an idiot to take that job.
He wants it. He married Scott Pelluar's daughter and wants to get back on the west coast. He made $550,000 this year and Cal could probably get him for ~700,000. Wilcox probably signs for somewhere in the low $2s as a first time coach, leaving enough $ for Tosh or Lake.

I think Hamdan and Lake are the two we could least afford to lose.
If it's smith then it's an absolute godsend.
No chance it's Kawasaki clearly
only in merica
The sportsline guy really needs to stop fucking with peoples emotions.
Except for the players because THAT would be wrong.
And every football player gets paid the same at every school
Petersen is a high visibility coach.
It can be done as some schools but most do not have the revenue to pay all athletes. And you cannot exclude any of them.
