Who is making up shite?
Mack Brown WAS paid $5 million a year to RUN that program into the ground.
Charlie Strong IS being paid $5 million a year to barely make a bowl (and lose it badly).
Bob Stoops is making more than either to lose to Sumlin and run that program into the ground.
In our region we are paying market rates. Period. Heck at least we got a bowl win for our money.
Sorry you can't understand basic economics.
Your "market rates" aren't any higher than other states. those other schools just tend to pay that much money to coaches that....you know....win shite.

Sure they are. Some states have higher market rates.
For example the market rate in Michigan is high. Right now both the top two programs in that state have two of the three highest paid coaches in the nation. They pay above market rates.
Meanwhile a state like Florida is below market rates. Muschamp was paid crap, and FSU is just barely paying Jimbo $5 million a year after winning a title.
Almost every major program can afford to pay their coaches more than they do. They don't because of social pressure- IE not wanting to drive up the market. Seeing as how this pressure varies state by state, so do the salaries.
