Our hc pay has stagnated for so many years that is not even a top fcs salary anymore.
I agree but think the assistant coach salaries are even more important. It was one of Craig Bohls major deals. I doubt we ever lose a head coach over a few hundred grand. We will lose a head coach over millions

An extra 50 grand would be much more impactful to an assistant making 100 grand.

Of course if we ever move up, we would likely get a TV revenue share that can help cover costs

Higher salaries = higher retention. Higher retention = better recruiting and a stronger system. It also attracts more candidates
