As many of you, I have read that Oregon is making Leavitt the highest paid assistant in PAC12 history and that Oregon is breaking the bank to bring him in. My question to all of this assuming the same thing happens with the OC is, do we think the plan is to spend money on the proven and higher profile top line coaches and pay the position coaches a little less? Possibly, bring in some younger and energetic position coaches with a chance to earn more through the years while also letting the knowledge of the more veteran coaches "trickle down"?
In my eyes, it might not be a bad strategy for the first couple of years but as position coaches become more experienced and matured, they possibly move on to other opportunities. In other words, is Oregon looking to top load at the HC, DC, and OC positions and willing to be a little more fluid at the position coach level?
