My understanding is that he was being paid $278.000/yr to be the UW HC. That is chicken feed. To make matters worse, Washington is a very expensive place to live. I have no clue what the guy is going to be payed here, but considering the COL, taxes, housing, gas, etc. he will come out ahead moving here.

I was the one that posted that. It was the most recently available data for 2022. But since he took the job Summer of 2022 I think in reality that's only half a years salary... So I think he's actually making about $550k if I had to guess.

The guy just wanted to coach for his best friend. No one could blame him for that…

Washington people are asking why he is leaving a HC position to be a pitching coach...I want to listen to him.

Peace for Ukraine!

I'm sorry for UW but the situation for them vs us is apples and oranges. The obvious differences don't need to be rehashed again

The financial step-down may be that big based on the cost of living vs Seattle.

Might be a pay raise for him. Plus there is going to be some long flights now for Washington.
