Jetsfan80 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Per Deadspin, among public employees, this is what the highest paid jobs look like across the country, for each state: That's right. More than half (26) of the US states pay their football coach more than any other public/state job. Only 10 US states pay someone other than a coach more money. Yet people think top-end college coaches are all just dying to enter the private sector and coach in the NFL, where you have to work twice as hard for less pay, and get criticized and scrutinized a lot more? Yeah, right. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, that does not mean it is the goal of everyone. Some like chocolate, some like vanilla. But as a whole, the best college coaches have it better than NFL in terms of: -Pay -Endorsements -Fringe benefits -Longevity -Personel control but yet guys like saban harbaugh jimmy ,spurrier, carroll and I can continue with plenty more if u wish bolted great college jobs for the pros-the best usually want to compete against the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He spends. The Jets are not run well, but the are lavishly appointed. Great facilities and great player resources across the board. once again name me any coaches the jets paid top dollar for under their ownership. I will wait but you wont have an answer. The johnsons never want to pay top dollar for coaches even though in the end the have to pay several coaches at a time since they hired bad ones to start out with only leon hess paid and that was because he said he was old and wanted to win now-Parcells came to the jets 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like your evident spirit and love of the game. I was being cynical and going for the cheap type of laugh. Who am I to dis a man like Spurrier who had a great career on and off the field. And yes, better to have tried and fallen short in the NFL than to have hunkered behind some keyboard in the safe shadows casting aspersions. Thanks for calling me out. Whoever the coach is, and our draft picks and acquisitions, May the Jets fight hard and succeed or fail honorably. The best to you this holiday season.

They didn't pay them higher because they didn't need to. Here is where the rubber meets the road. The coaches that would command big money DID NOT WANT TO COME TO THE JETS BECAUSE THEY KNEW FROM THE INTERVIEW THAT JOHNSON WOULD BE CONSTANTLY JERKING THEM AROUND, PULLING THEIR CHAIN, PISSING IN THEIR SOUP AND F*****G UP THEIR KITCHEN IN GENERAL. If my supposition about Joe Douglas is correct and he is in fact the one swinging his balls around, any prospective coaches for 2021 would not have the same reason to object to coming to the Jets. It is a new ballgame, quite literally. Johnson will pay big money *IF* a big money coach wants the job. And, If I am correct about Douglas and the role he is playing, we'll get a very promising HC for 2021. If I am wrong and Johnson is still in the kitchen sticking his dick in the toaster, Gase will be back. We'll all of us know the truth of it on January 4th.
