Awesome news and a great coach. Hell of a hire by Dabo, curious what he had to pay to lure him here...

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Sorry I guess I should have clarified


Jan 8, 2011, 11:42 AM

In the article it says in the neighborhood of 300,000. But I read that he was making that much 2 years ago at Duke. If we are offering him similar money, and he was assistant head coach and co defensive coordinator how did we pull him offering him similar money to coach the DE's?

guessing he may up as our DC... just got a feeling. You

don't pay that much for a DE line coach

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

It wouldn't have mattered. Learning at Bama under Saban


Jan 8, 2011, 12:04 PM

is an incredibly unique opportunity. If you're a younger coach like Rumph, you do not pass that experience up. He'll gain a ton of knowledge learning under a great coach at a great place.

Why did Saban's man leave for Texas?***

different coach as well.

Same reason Rumph would leave for Alabama. Learn new ideas.

no, to get away from the @$$hole that is Saban.***

Rumph is a coot, but if we matched the money, he would

still be here.

2024 white level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Are you implying Saban is better than Dabo? Blasphemy!!!***

Dabo knows Rumph isnt worth that much money***


Jan 8, 2011, 12:13 PM [ in reply to why didn't we match Alabama's offer then*** ]



flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Because Hobby for 300k is better than Rumph for 400k.***

From the pedigree Hobby has, it seems we have taken a step up from Rumph. And wasn't Rump learning from Steele the same as Saban does at Bama. Just wondering about the Bama system and the one Steele uses....

I know Hobby coached in the nfl for a little while and has..

been coaching with David Cutcliffe for a number of years not just at Duke

Sometimes, a coach will take a little less pay to come to a better team. It pays off better in future moves.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I think Duke was paying him between 300-350K


Jan 8, 2011, 11:43 AM [ in reply to Re: Hobby headed back to Clemson ]

So I'd guess a 2 or 3 yr deal at 400K

Re: I think Duke was paying him between 300-350K

It sounds like he will be a good replacement for Rumph.

(and he didn't go to South Carolina - win/win)

watch it, you're asking for thumbs down from the pumpers for using that tone !!

Great hire


Jan 8, 2011, 3:51 PM

Better at coaching the position than Rumph, but I cannot remember how he did on recruiting when he was here.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: Great hire


Jan 8, 2011, 4:28 PM

seems we always have the great recruiters who are OK at coaching. I'll take the ok recruiter who can coach these young men up!
At least this coach has a few years experience and sounds like he should have a good base in north carolina too.
go tigers.
