Whitlock: "Buffalo Bills need to offer $25 million a year to Cignetti"

Nah, Cignetti is one of the best coaching jobs ever seen in college football. The vast majority of the key players on Indiana were transfers from James Madison who must have cost almost nothing and more guys who were already on the Indiana roster than you would think. Mendoza was a nice expensive piece for sure but not much else needed Cuban money.

I think Indiana was helped by going against a bunch of teams that have select sports style culture now. Still great

They're going to have half a dozen of those JMU guys drafted. They 100% paid out the ass to keep them around this year.

He’s from Pittsburgh. They have an opening. His whole extended family still lives there. He’s 64, if he’s ever been curious, now would be the time. Top NFL coaches make a mint and he could ask top dollar. Ride off into the sunset as a D1 lightning strike and take a job that allows for more freedom in your life. 64 isn’t old but it sure isn’t young and he looks like he’s been working hard and drinking beer for a long time. Steelers are also a first class, A1 organization. That would be the job to leave Indiana for, none of the others really rate.

I actually think Pittsburgh wouldn’t put up with Cig coming in and trying to take over the organization. Coaches bend to ownership there, not the other way around. Maybe it could work, but they have a way of doing things and they have been successful for a long time. Far from being a dynasty, but that is a successful franchise.

Doubtful they paid out the ass. They may get drafted with their 2025 play on tape now though. Sarrat was probably the only one that they had to actually pay.

The Rooneys like to have someone who stays at least 15 years. They'd probably settle for someone with his resume though.

To go on a tangent, I remember Terry Bradshaw questioning TOmlin in like 2016.
 
You said they had to pay a lot to keep players out of the draft. Which ones did they have to pay a lot to keep out of the draft specifically?
