Time to Make a Splash

Let's assume 4 million was the number.
Would it buy any of these guys?
Charlie Strong
David Shaw
Todd Graham
James Franklin
Mark Dantonio
Kevin Sumlin

AZDuck

maybe
no
no
maybe
probably not
you don't want him

At this point ignore his record against top teams, it's vanderbilt. If we pay 4 james will come. At least offer him

Mad_Son

That would over double Franklin and Dantonio's salaries.
Shaw's number is private but I *think* estimated in the 2.XM range.
Graham made the same as Mora (2.3M)
With cost of living that is a pay decrease for Strong
Sumlin just signed a new 3 year $5M deal

I think Dantonio is going to get career money when he beats Urbz.
Franklin is supposedly really into Nashville but who knows.
Graham is two years in, he will be the new Petrino if he hops again.
Strong is overrated beating up on pygmies at Louisville, and still losing to one.
Sumlin's defenses are dogshit, he made $15MM off Johnny Football.

In the end it's probably going to be whoever Nick Saban decides to endorse when Woody calls to beg for help.

MisterEm

No more 7-figure interns.

yep, he is drastically overrated. Would be 6 or 7 on my list
