It's a flat rate. Last I saw was a couple of years ago and it was slightly over $23000. 

Do they get bonuses for winning? I think you'll probably see that happen in a few years.

Anyone want to share what the supplement is? Ive heard some schools pay a % of a coaches salary and others its a flat amount

Coaches salaries at public schools are public record...pull it up on Milan Special School District website or drop by the BOE. Of course they could negotiate a higher or lower amount before signing a contract with whomever they decide to offer.

I know he is probably in an 11 or 12 month contract instead of the standard 200 day (10 month) contract. That would be in top of base pay and stipend. Total compensation is very nice.

That's COMMITMENT and EXPECTATIONS rolled into one.  Only a few places like it in west TN.

Yeah it's a lot. He made very good money. I talked to someone else about this but I would bet his total compensation was easily in the top 10 coaches in the state not counting private schools. But over his coaching career he has produced results and earned it.

New coach will be in place very soon. The Milan School Board is having a special called meeting tonight to discuss and vote on a new teaching position being added and amending the budget for the football coaching stipend.

BPM, who is at the top of your wish list for the next head coach at Milan?

Rod Smith or McConnell from Waverly. I know itwill not be either one but it would be great.  They already have their guy picked. Just have to have the meeting to dot the i's and cross the t's.

No doubt he did. Class act.  I am sure Milan will pick another good one.  Had Morris ever been a head coach anywhere else when he took the job?

No. He was an assistant in Henry Co for a few years and an assistant in Milan for two years under Bland.

Who got the job?
