2009 Salaries:

1. Bill Byrne - $689,001
2. Dennis Franchione - $500,001
4. Mike Sherman - $500,000

That's the top of a pyramid of fail.

Looking further down the list, there's listed:

Unknown Unknown - $232,185

Maybe Mr. Unknown knows where A&M's defense went?

I am sorry but I am missing the humor in this post.

I’m not shocked.

Well, that's one way to piss away money

And on another note… A&M’s head coach makes less than either of our coordinators?

It seem's like your surprised by this

Since we haven’t lost money buying out contracts and have consistently fielded a nationally ranked(usually top 10) team throughout the Mack Brown era, i think it makes perfect sense. I’m sure once the aggies find a coach that can get them to back to back bowl games they will pay him sufficiently.

I still thought their head coach would be above our coordinators

Their program still has a huge budget. Also, noted by Texas Wahoo below, our coordinators do make less according to that site, but I’ve heard higher figures quoted for our coordinators… 750k and 900k respectively for Davis and Muschamp. So the figures on that site are a little weird.

According to that website

Muschamp and Davis are both making 375k. So they must be lacking in certain incentives or bonuses or something.

Unknown Unknown IS the defense.

Indeed.

Why the obsession with A&M?

Why are you so obsessed with A&M? Don’t you have to worry about the game with Baylor Bears this week?

by YUMC on Nov 11, 2009 3:45 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

You're right

If Longhorns fans on this board don’t focus on Baylor, the Baylor football team might beat the Texas football team.

Alternatively, what’s your obsession with constantly schlepping over to BON and posting about a game several weeks away? Don’t you have to worry about a game against Oklahoma?

Regarding salaries:

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m guessing that the salaries listed on that website are the part of the salary paid by campus. The rest comes from the athletic budget. Its still pretty funny that campus pays Sherman $1 less than ex head coach Franchione.
