Will the new coach be paid the same $600,000 per year Bowers was paid? If not why not?

owlbooster You edited your post and added the Margaret Thatcher quote. She never would have wasted $600,000/year on a HS coach. She was a conservative.

You liberal Ensworth supporters have gone off the deep end. I am sure there is a designated “safe space†at Ensworth that you can retreat, with your Starbucks coffee, from the big, bad message boards.
Y’all are a little thick. Ensworth is not a business. Ensworth is not a church. It is a non-profit. And yes, you are exempt from paying taxes on your operating profit and your investment income just like Harvard (who you frequently compare yourselves to).
You operate, partially, with public funds and that is why you open to public scrutiny.
You liberals at Ensworth are supposed to be tolerant, diverse, inclusive but you are intolerant of people who have different opinions. And yes, it is ridicules to pay a HS football coach $600,000/year.
-
There is another example of why it is only partially “their moneyâ€. Ensworth made a profit of $9 million running the institution. They got to keep $4.5 million in state and federal taxes because they are a non-profit.

You are avoiding the point. It is not only “their moneyâ€. It is only partially “their moneyâ€. If it was only “their moneyâ€, they would not have to file public financial statements.
Let it rest.

RedRobin1, your fanatical support of Ensworth has left you confused. I am the conservative and you are the liberal. Conservatives want to use resources wisely. Liberals, like you, want to waste money on any hair-brained scheme that comes along.
And yes, spending $600,000/year on a HS football coach is a waste of money, especially since it is partially funded by tax deductible contributions. Even good HS coaches, and Bowers is a good coach, are not worth that amount.
-
Some Ensworth supporters are concerned that Ricky Bowers has 4 full-time jobs to justify his $600,000 salary. I will relieve your concerns.
Job #1 Associate Head of School – ceremonial title given to justify salary
Job #2 Athletic Director – again don’t worry. He has 8, count’em 8, Associate/ Assistant athletics directors to help spread the workload

3. Head Football Coach – fall season plus 1 week of spring practice. No teaching load
4. Head Basketball Coach – winter season only. No teaching load

Dude - Your panties were in a wad because I reported Rickey Bowers salary of $600,000 from a public document. You implied it was wrong to report that information. Glad you finally admitted you are wrong.
-
The law also allows me to fly a drone over your property and comment publicly on anything I see in your fenced-in back yard. Does that mean I should do it?
Still not sure what the point of this thread is.
Drones are a diversion. Yes, you should examine the public financial statements of non-profits.
When Tommy Frist gives a $1,000,000 to Ensworth, $550,000 comes from his funds. The remaining $450,000 comes from reducing his federal tax by that amount due to the donation. . The public has the right to know how their taxes are spent and that is why the feds make their financial statements public.
-
The tax returns are public documents. The federal government allows non-profits to accept tax deductible contributions in exchange for public financial statements. They encourage the public to "nosing around in my (Ensworth) tax returns and broadcasting their opinions thereon ". If you don't like it, talk to your Congressman.
-
You Ensworth supporters seem a little defensive.
The Ensworth Vision Statement states "And we envision a school that reaches beyond itself to its broader community, that embraces service opportunities"
Should Ensworth hire a good football coach/teacher for $150,000 and spend $450,000 in the community?

Has the Brentwood tournament (G.P. West) passed the Ryan tournamant as the best wrestling tournament in Middle Tenn?

Why is Hooker going to Ryan rather than MBA? McCallie's academics are similar to MBA's academics.
