Aren’t we under the assumption we aren’t really going to know who it is until around Thanksgiving?

Maybe. Hell if I know. Not sure if Turd is playing 3D chess or he just has so few interested decent coaches, or he is hamstrung by TC/Boosters/etc where he can't pay the guy(s) he wants what they need to come to Lincoln.

I don't have a feel for what the real situation is right now. Nothing would surprise me TBH. Well, maybe an A+ hire would surprise me. Maybe I am just worn out from years and years of losing and years and years of hiring shitty coaches.
 
How’d the board feel about Mark Stoops?
He’s frustrated with admin, fans, and Calipari. Probably reached his ceiling at Kentucky and Kentucky fans are surprisingly mad at him.

HC - Mark Stoops … current contract takes him up to 8kil by the end. Probably have to pay 8-10mil.
OC/QB- Rich Scangaelo (current Kentucky OC, 1st season) current salary 900k. Probably have to pay 2miion
RB - John Settle (former longtime Wisconsin rb coach, 2nd season at Kentucky) - current salary 500k. Give him 800-900k
WR/pass game coordinator - Mickey Jospeh … pay him 1 mil.
TE/Recruiting coordinator- Vince Marrow (think everyone is familiar with him, another elite recruiter - Makes 900k/year. Pay him 1 million
OL/Run game coordinator - Scott Fuchs(Kansas OL) - makes 300k. Give him 600-700k.

DC/Linebacker - Brad White (Kentucky DC) - makes 1.5 mil at Kentucky and would probably be a candidate for the full time job. Offer 2 mil a year
DL - dunno .. current guy at Kentucky is a Kentucky guy. Probably hangs around there. Pay top dollar 1 mil if needed.
CB - Travis Fisher - keep his for recruiting purposes I guess. Let him learn under Mark. - bump pay to 750k.
S - Vance Jospeh - Probably gets fired from Arizona this season imagine that’s the end of his coordinator career. Maybe Mickey convinces him if he stays. - 1.5 mil a year

Special teams - Bill Busch - up him to 600k as a thank you

On the top end you’d like at 20,850,000 a year for coaches its double what they’ve ever paid. But it would be best case scenario at this point
