Looks like they named current employees co ADs.

I doubt it. If I'm DeLuca I pass on Cal. It's a lateral move right now. He would be better staying on, getting Davis into the MWC. I think he has more success at Davis and when he does, trust me, there will be bigger fish who come calling.

There is no way CAL and UC Davis is a lateral move. While CAL football and basketball have struggled, they have history and some of their Olympic sports regularly bring home NCAA titles. UCD's football and basketball are not juggernauts and Olympic sports are weak with no national presences and general medocity in the Big West. CAL is at the adult table and UCD is still at the kiddie table on the national scene.

No way is it a lteral move.

I'd guess the Cal AD makes 3x what the Davis AD makes....

Base pay
CAL 300k
UCD 278k

“Other” pay
CAL 1.03m
UCD 30k

I’m not sure exactly what “other” pay is or how it is paid for, performance bonuses? Funded by state or boosters? Guaranteed or discretionary? Idk.

Sounds about right!
