Willie Simmons is leaving PVAMU for FAMU

So you wouldn't take a job closer to home that came with a 26K pay increase with a 5 year contract if you're in the last year of your current deal with nothing to guaranty you'll be retain beyond that last year?

I see what you're saying, but as you know a school chooses to participate in foolishness. My school knows all about being foolish as a result of being thirsty.

Was there a buy-out involved for that one year remaining on his contract?

I'm glad he said "one of the highest..."

Right,....no one has to participate in that foolishness of being the highest either. Lowest budgets in all of FCS, but highest head coach salaries....SMH.
Coach Haywood, meet ax and chopping block soonest. lol Ouch.
How do we screw up other schools when it comes to hiring?
Desperate? Nah...we told y’all who we wanted well in advance. We knew how much PV was paying and knew that if we wanted him, we’d have to go above that.
Just like any other college football program would do for the guy they want

Yes, I would. I'd do it for the same amount. That's why I said "I understand home is a big deal." Let someone offer me the same package and keep me my bills the same that I'm getting in Houston, I'm going back to Cali.

So y'all still cant find a coach? Its funny how you guys have to do REAL coaching searches. JSU has not had a coaching search since before I was born.

I know what shows... you dont have a coach. ...and nobody lined up.
JSU has coaches lined up. If we fired Hughes tomorrow, im 99.9% sure who our new coach and members of the staff would be.
No coach has left JSU since the 60s.

yall can have him.....
If that’s the general condense from PV fans, then what’s the problem?
It shows in all that instability y'all got over there. Lawsuit here, lawsuit there, 3rd lowest SWAC athletic budget, broke broke broke... 3 f'ing wins. Get butt hurt. The truth slaps the taste out of your imbecilic mouths. DAYAM wheelchair dude close Texas' SWAC borders! smgdh

Bruh, we don't have a problem. We see things for what they are. It just befuddles us how a cash strapped school can afford a 300K over-inflated salary @ the d-I fcs level.

we don't want anyone in that position who doesn't want to be at PV....point blank...
We wouldn’t have offered it if we can’t afford it

"There’s definitely a commitment from the fan base when it comes to Simmons’ contract – the Rattler F Club, the Rattler Boosters and FAMU’s National Alumni Association have pledged a combined $60,000 annually for the new coach’s contract."
So what happens when they don't raise that $60K annually?
