… what with that Knight Commission report and all… But UD thinks it’s time to ground the discussion in actual ongoing cases. The case method, if you will.
Let’s begin with this question: Does Mike Locksley, University of New Mexico football coach, make too much?
Well, before we reveal his salary, let’s consider what he’s contributed to UNM so far this year.
1.) The team’s record: 0 – 6. He’s in his first year, and has lost every game he has coached.
2.) He has an EEOC complaint against him for firing an administrative assistant because, he told her, he wanted a younger woman to “entice recruits.”
3.) He has a history of violent behavior, and has most recently beaten up one of his assistant coaches.
So… what seems a reasonable salary for this man?
Did you say $750,000 a year?
Bingo.

It’s impossible to put a price tag on the pride students and faculty must feel to be part of the UNM community.
