There goes our primary replacement option.

So in real life, you're actually Doug Gillin?

So Brohm won’t leave Purdue for his alma mater but Satt will leave his alma mater for Louisville...not buying it.

Not saying Satterfield will or will not leave, but Brohm is already at a P5 making P5 money, so this would be a lateral move. Satterfield is not making a lateral move if he goes to a P5..

True,but if you were the next in line for the offer and the guy in front of you didn't want it, would that not make you think twice about it yourself? I get your point about it being a P5 but you are giving up job security for a potential short term gig. The avg HC in D1 is 3.8 years. I don't care how much money you are making, that is a rough life. Satt knows this, so he owes it to himself to ask is it worth leaving your dream job for it.

[AppSt94]

Great. DG has 4 days to put together a pitch to keep him.

The only thing that will help me sleep tonight is the faith I have in DG.

Realistically, what is that? I feel like we give him everything we can afford now. We know how valuable he is and want to keep him, so if we had more to give, we would. We can’t touch 5 million/year.
If money is the driving reason, we are screwed. If a P5 challenge is the motivation, how can we compete?

He'll turn down $5 million to stay at APP...because his kids aren't out of high school and his wife and..and...and..LOL

He can get the same money in three years. There is no reason to think he couldn't.

If he's already in his dream job, why did he hire the biggest shark in the water as an agent?

[EastHallApp]

Not trying to tell anyone how to live their lives, but some of y'all could save yourselves a lot of angst if you just skipped the denial and stopped trying to dream up reasons why Satt would turn down every P5 opening his name is linked to.

Fair question. The obvious conclusion that most people would jump to is that he is looking to leave. Maybe it was to hammer out the details of his last contract or review the language to ensure that he was getting what he wanted. Maybe it was so that he knew that his name would come up for future jobs and Sexton is the best at working behind the scenes to do the grunt work so that Satt can focus on coaching. Maybe he hired him to keep his name relevant while his kids finish school here and then he is open to leave. If you keep turning down jobs eventually people will quit offering you. There are a whole host of reasons why he could have hired him. People tend to gravitate to the low hanging fruit (reason for hiring him) because it takes the least amount of effort.

[Stonewall]

Brohm leveraged a healthy raise.

There is no angst on my part. Just trying to be pragmatic with the process and using the information that I have of Satt and his personality. He will do what is right for him and his family. That may be to stay and it may be to go. Who knows but to your point, people could save themselves alot of angst by not thinking that he is gone with every P5 job that opens up.

Better opportunity for program and a tripling of total comp. Satt will buy it if the length of contract is there and he likes the AD.

[ukappfan]

People online can say what they want, but the only person who knows if he wants to leave is Satt. If he wants to go then good luck to him. But like others have said, I am sure money is not his only driving factor.

On the flip side, if he hired the biggest shark in the water, why would he settle for a dumpster fire like Louisville?

For a challenge. My major concern is any distractions for this upcoming game.

Fair point. I don’t think he’s gone with every P5 job that opens. Just the one that offers him.

[AppSt91]

Get a foot in the P5 ranks for experience. Oh, and about $3-$4M a year.

How does she feel about Louisville or Atlanta?

I can think of plenty.

A bad season. Injuries. An internal scandal outside of his immediate control. Losing star players to academics, other off the field issues. Etc, etc.

I said this on another board and I’ll say it here, there are no guarantees in this business. If Satterfield produced 3 losing seasons without a bowl appearance, he’d either be canned or on the hot seat. And he sure as heck wouldn’t be interviewing for P5 gigs. He’d be lucky to be getting calls from Campbell.

This is an argument I don’t buy lol. What makes Louisville a dumpster fire other than the fact that they were bad last year?
