So you have said before.  | 
| If they are looking to replace the existing director due to cost, I’m eminently qualified and will do the job for $250k. | 
						
 I’ll do it for 100K with NO bonuses  | 
							
						
 I will do it for nothing. Are we done here?  | 
							
						
 Something hit a nerve?  | 
							
						
 I’m sure they are placing kids in lots of D1 and pro programs ... so totally worth it.  | 
							
						
 Not at all. It is the predictable clown-show you see when we all talk about what individuals earn for a living - envy, resentment, preening, the usual. Certainly other things to be more interested in, like minimum wage, average coaching salaries, etc.  | 
							
						
 Or exploitation, pay-to-play, money grab....  | 
							
						
 Of course. People are really oppressed. It's rigged, right? Let me guess - that's true of a lot of things in your life? Right? Shallow mind, thin wallet, not many steaks in the freezer I am guessing. Maybe if we were a little better at our own jobs we'd worry a little less about others . . . .  | 
| People on this forum really have zero sense of humor. | 
| He's not leaving and the board won't change anything. What's going to happen is the coaches he's been underpaying will walk away. And if the right clubs take them in, teams will follow. See LMVSC/SYC last year. | 
						
 And so goes the players, families and donors...  | 
| I think we can all agree 350k is a little much. In a country where pay to play is a big issue this hits a lot of peoples hearts. Kids can’t play or afford to play but ED get 350k? How about he gets half and use that money for something else in the club | 
						
 Earlier poster who doesn’t like the mob mentality when it comes to individual salaries. Agreed on your point. But I think all of that was established on page one of the thread. Now the hard part: what is the right way to do this. First, establish a sane base. 100K? Second, establish a ratio with average coach salary. Third, require club to establish minimum percentage of subsidized or free access to rec and travel programs. They have a high number relative to other clubs, which is one of the reasons my kid plays there. Fourth, do not exceed more than 4% fee increase for rec or travel in any year. Fifth, if the club has excess funds end of year, determine formula for splitting between community access, coaches and ED. And if the Board doesn’t implement it, then donors can earmark donations for community access or coaches. Problem solved.  | 
						
 I think we all agree. But nothing will happen. Tell me the last time one of these clubs ousted an ED or head of a club. He's hardly the first to skirt the rules or act unethically and he won't be the last. And coaches leaving won't be the first time. And in 2 years, nobody will care that any of this happened.  |
