Sources tell me Washington offered to double Jim Mora’s current salary if he accepts position to coach the Huskies.

He has 10K followers.

I think he'll be more interested in $$ for assts.

If that is true that is absolutely a legit offer and probably would put him in the Top 5 range in the country or close to it, depending on which current salary figure that is out there is most accurate.

Double is too weak. $5.5 or GTFO Scott. There better be another counter in the works.

Like I said before the money is a statement. When you put out that much money for a coach you are announcing we are ready to play big boy football again.

Just like when Hedges stole Rick from Colorado. At the time Colorado was a good program as well.

Despite what revisionist history DoogsFS say that Rick hire was a great hire.

very true, and if woodward's smart the purse he has for assistants is part of the offer, thats how we distance from UCLA show him we care about overall program health.

Counter until he signs. Period. I like to write "period" in case someone doesn't see the .

It sure sounds like he is currently in the 2.5-2.8 range, so i don't think that is a terrible offer. First offers are always negotiated, so if this is true i have to believe we are prepared to get up to your figure if not higher.

This, plus all of the other nuts and bolts of building a big-time program (support staff, trainers, etc).

Mora is going to say no 2 or 3 times...its Pool Boy's job to keep coming back and saying 'its your dream job, I will give you what you need to make it your dream job, what else should we be talking about.'

Only way it doesn't get done is if Pool Boy doesn't push hard enough...*cough* *cough*

This.

And raise for his assistants.

$5M would put Mora at 4th in the country.

There are often several "NOs" before a "YES."

Fuck let's end this shit already! Give Mora a blank check, give him a list of assistants he wants and start making some fucking phone calls already!

Get this deal done! Let Mora know the talent we have coming back, new stadium, dream job, will get free Pie every Birthday, etc and let's get this show on the road.
