April 24, 200917 yr Pretty sure Joe B. Hall's still on the UK payroll. Bet he's doing the same thing Denny's doing. Doesn't Joe B help recruit on the Football side. I know when Lorenzen and Smith were seniors, Joe B was at every home football game making sure Highlands knew that Kentucky was in the house keeping a close watch on their boys.
April 24, 200917 yr Ok, I'd love to have either ones job, but more so Hall's. I would LOVE to recruit $$$$$ for UK. I am a big fan of both money and UK. I'd love to recruit money for anyone if I got paid like that.:ylsuper:
April 24, 200917 yr I think that price tag is very high for the little work that he does. If that's Denny bashing, so be it. I don't understand this kind of thinking. He is a guy in demand. He is a guy that worked hard to make Louisville a nationally recognized institution. If that's what the university thinks he's worth, then that's what he's worth. This thread is 100% hateration.
April 24, 200917 yr I think that price tag is very high for the little work that he does. If that's Denny bashing, so be it. Can you provide some information on how much Money Coach Crum has helped UofL Fundraise? Before I questioned his salary I would wont to have some info on what he does. From what I understand coach Crum never turns down anthing that involves helping the University of louisville. If it hadnt been for Coach Crum and the basketball program during his time UofL athletics would have been bankrupt.
April 25, 200917 yr Pretty sure Joe B. Hall's still on the UK payroll. Bet he's doing the same thing Denny's doing. What does that have to do with anything? I was asking a serious question.
April 25, 200917 yr You're right, I am a Card hater. Your statement wasn't hateration on the Cards. It was hating on the free market in general. This is the type of thinking that socialism is built upon. I mean how dare Denny Crum accept this salary. This is America where people like Denny Crum can be paid a ridiculous salary if someone thinks he's worth it.

Who said I was hating on Crum for TAKING the salary? Come on man, you're missing it.
April 26, 200917 yr Who said I was hating on Crum for TAKING the salary? Come on man, you're missing it. Maybe I'm taking the intent of the thread wrong. When I hear things like the interview with Calhoun at UConn and how he makes a big salary when they are having to downsize things on campus. When people complain about Calapari's salary, professional athletes salary, etc... it comes off as the person complaining being selfish to me. Like they want to bring someone else down if that person has achieved a level of success that few ever do. :irked: This thread hit me that way. If that's not how you intended it to come off then I apologize and will step off my soap box.
April 27, 200917 yr A nice gig if you can get it! It is an easy gig to get... Just win a national title or two for your school and stick around to have the court named after you. Come on guys. If Pitino had stuck around, fast-forward 30 years and wanted to be around the university would you have a problem with paying him this amount of money? I venture to guess the honest answer is no, you wouldn't mind at all. It is the same in UofL land.
