Scott and Elliott are doing really well for financially for such young coaches. No incentive for either to leave anytime soon.

Man I need to find a job that gives 15-30% raises every year.
I know we have one of, if not the best coaching staffs in the country, and they deserved to be paid as such, but when do these salaries become unsustainable? That's not necessarily a question specific to Clemson. Coaching salaries in general just seem to be increasing at a rate that just can't last.
5 years ago there were 9 head coaches that made $3 million or more. This past season there were 36. In 2012 when Chad became the highest paid assistant at 1.3 million it was a rarity and the only assistant coach over $1 million and the next 6 were $800,000 or higher. That's 7 salaries at $800,000 or higher. This past season there were 12 making over $1 million and 25 making over $800,000.
In 5 years Brent Venables (I'm only using him because he's one of the highest) has had a salary increase of 112% or about 22.5% a year. If he stays at Clemson and his salary continues to grow at the same rate, in 5 years he will be around $3.8 million. Dabo's has increased about 24% per year in the last 5 years. At that rate in 5 years he will be about $10 million. In 10 years it would be about $23 million.
I'm not saying this to complain about our coaching salaries. In order to stay on top we have to compete with the Joneses. I'm just pondering where college football goes in the next decade. Is it going to be commonplace to see $15-20 million dollar payrolls for a 10 member staff? Do the raises slow down to a manageable number? Thoughts?

AD's and universities need to pay attention to the TV

and satellite business when paying their coaches. ESPN is taking on water and is having a harder time selling in a decreasing cable/satellite TV environment. TV money makes this possible. Pay attention to the welfare of the market that feeds you is my suggestion . Donations are always there but the icing money is TV contracts.

My thoughts are that Dabo is probably making several million less that the previous 5 or 6 NC coaches, of course there are only 3 I think Nick Saban, Jimbo Fischer and the Urban Meyer.
I think we had the best coaching staff in college football until the departures of DT and DE coaches. There replacements are along the going rates for hiring new assistant coaches. The 3 coordinators could get a HC coaching job making more that they are currently making so I have not issue with their pay.

Not to worry. Within the next 2 years, Trump will lead the US into a depression (worse than G W Bush's 2008 major recession), and most people won't be able to afford the game tickets. Then, the coaches' salaries will fall like rocks off a cliff.

The highest paid assistant and all they get is an 8-4 record last year
Regardless if your head coach got fired mid-season. You get paid that much you need to have a lot more wins on your record

?? I would expect one of Elliott or Scott to move on to a head coaching job in the next two years. Interesting Scott received a two year extension and Elliott only one, maybe a preview of which one gets an offer first.
Probably need to figure in Lamanski Hall as well with the likelihood of the 10th assistant before next season
