    CoSIDA NEWS Intercollegiate Athletics News from Around the Nation June 11, 2007 Coaches won't stop cashing in - Sunday, 06/10/07 Page 1 of 2 This is a printer friendly version of an article from the The Tennessean. To print this article open the file menu and choose Print ‹ ‹ Back Coaches won't stop cashing in Published: Sunday, 06/10/07 Have soapbox, will speak. Gordon Gee, Vanderbilt's chancellor, recently entertained a group of reporters at the SEC's spring meeting with a brief lesson in economics. "I'm the highest paid university president in the country," Gee said. "If I were a football coach in the Southeastern Conference, I'd be the lowest paid. "I think the value system is all out of whack." He's exaggerating about the salary structure — but only slightly. According to figures published in the Chronicle of Higher Education, Gee's total compensation package last year was $1.2 million. Meanwhile, seven SEC football coaches make more than Gee — and some of them significantly more. "I think what we've engaged in is an arms race that has gotten out of hand," Gee said. Guilty as charged. But what are you going to do about it? Nothing. This runaway train has long since left the station. Market principles govern coaching salaries … and chancellors' salaries, come to think of it. Rhetorical question: Would 100,000 people buy tickets and a nationwide TV audience tune in to see a university CEO conduct daily business? And then there are the external pressures. I haven't seen a firegordongee.com Web site lately.
