Would either Simmons or Barrow be able to command Neumann-like money even if the AD title is kicked in?

It took Neumann 25 years to get to that salary. There is no reason why either one of those guys should start out being the highest paid coach in the area.

How about these Hypotheticals?

1- Coach Barrow gets offered AD/Hd Football and gets offered 92K a year....

2-Coach English offered AD at (92K) and Coach Barrow offered Hd Football (85k)....

3-Coach Simmons offered AD/Hd Football and gets offered 92K a year...

4-Coach English offered AD at (92K) and Barrow declines...New Applicant offered (85K) as Hd Football

The numbers above are just hypothetical and can be moved up or down....Are any of these unrealistic?

Scenario 4 won't happen. Simmons will not take the job without both ad and head football coach. The job likely will start in the mid 80k range and that's with both head coach and AD titles.

Scenario 4 

Was if Barrow declines and obviously Simmons is not coming unless the full package (I agree with ya here) This would be if someone new from outside then applied with just Football Hd Coaching duties

In my opinion Simmons will be offered the job first If no agreement can be reached then English will be ad with Barrow being named head coach.

Why do you think simmons will be picked over Barrow?

If nisd gives 2 employees both $25,000 plus raises when 1 guy can do the job like 99% of other texas isd's there will be major budget issues & with all other teachers who want raises...

If the AD job goes to anyone other than the Football HC then the priority of the football program in Nederland has just been seriously downgraded.  SAD

100% fact if that happens

As  opposed to all football?

ad is for all sports not 1 only 

Monte Barrow has been for ALL Nederland sports his whole life. He's coached several different ones & I seen him at all the sports games the last 23 yrs.

This is very true and i agree that a good AD should be able to balance all the sports, but when was the last time during the regular season  you saw 7000+ attend a basketball, volleyball,baseball etc....game. Football is the money maker and this is TEXAS.

Basketball does not draw between 10 to 15000 fans, does not get the community fired up like football does, does not generate the revenue that football does, does not have a 200 piece marching band, westernaires, multiple concession stands, cheerleaders etc to compare the two is like comparing apples to oranges.....go to Indiana then you have a Basketball AD.

It makes sense if English is offered Ad and Barrow is offered head coach

What makes a better AD? 23 yrs learning the day to day job under an AD/Head football coach like Larry Neumann or the other options? Is this about controlling the hiring & athletic budget because some non football people believe their sports should get equal or more $$$ as football? Ive been to booster club meetings & trust me all the other sports do get taken care of. This should be about whats best for the whole athletic program & the best football coach for the town of Nederland. Head Basketball coach position is filled & program is in fine shape, no need to mess with a good thing right???
