Marshall & Cusa Not A Good $$$ Match ?

[MeanGreen61]

A couple of years ago, the NCAA and national athletic directors' association were doing surveys on staff and coaching salaries for a national report. When those entering Marshall's submission into a database saw Marcum's salary, they phoned the Herd AD to make sure it wasn't a typographical error.

The average athletic director salary in C-USA is just north of $280,000. That's not the only mismatch in resources for the Herd that has been cranked up several degrees by the move from the Mid-American Conference to C-USA.

As the northernmost member of C-USA, Marshall is a Rust Belt school trying to compete in a Sun Belt league - and I don't mean the conference of Troy, Arkansas State and Western Kentucky (where, by the way, the average AD still makes about $55,000 annually more than Marcum does).

I think we (UNT) have a good deal in RV. He does a lot for the program with the limited resources he has to work with. After he gets us the new stadium, baseball, indoor practice facility, and membership into CUSA would should think about a good raise for him.
