I just hope they put a clause in the contract that says if he starts to lose that hair he is out of a job.

He's worth it. Being a.d. at VCU would be awesome but I'm sure you have to kiss a lot of @ss and it's definitely not a 9-5 job.
wow! not sure I have seen results to date that warrant such a high percentage increase or a hire of a coach that is now setting the world on fire here at VCU. But clearly his time here has been relatively short so far so we will see. congrats to Ed
We need stability and continuity. We won't get anywhere as an athletic department if we have constant turnover. We need our AD to make a competitive salary.

The most compelling reason to pay Ed (and Rao, for that matter) very well: Shaka likes his bosses. Instability at the senior levels is maybe the one thing most likely to give him the wandering eye.

What is the salary comparison to other public university ADs and other administrators at VCU? I have a friend that was just promoted to Vice President in VCU's PR dept. I imagine we will be hearing about Dr. Rao's salary increase as well since the new fiscal year is about to begin. Too much? That is not my place to say.
Money, money, money. Tuition hikes on the back of students. What has he done to deserve such a raise? That is a 29 percent raise in just over one year. Faculty are lucky to get a 3 percent raise.
