But a lot of those coaches are worth the price tag producing teams that consistently compete for conference and national championships.

I don't have a problem with the others.

Revenue per win minus cost per win would be a much better indicator. I'm guessing this fellow did not graduate from the Culverhouse College of Commerce and Business Administration.

Title: Re: 15 Most Overpaid Coaches Post by: Catch Prothro on June 01, 2012, 10:48:35 PM Houston Nutt at #1 is pretty funny, and might be accurate too. But cost per win is a poor business model. If they looked at additional revenue generated for the university, then Saban would be the #1 bargain. There isn't a major university in the country that wouldn't pay Saban what Bama pays to have him as their head coach now.

I was trying to put my finger on what was wrong this article all yesterday, and you guys hit the nail on the head. |
