Next year is the 4th year of a 5 yr contract. I'd imagine he'll need a completely new contract with new incentives to reflect our new position. And for the most part, FBS assistants make more than FCS ones too, so they'd be getting nice raises too.

Cig's first year base salary was $425k. I believe it's still the same. I recall Houston had something in his contract for if we moved to FBS, so I assume the same case with Cig. JMU typically seems to get what I see as good (for JMU) deals when paying coaches. I'd assume Cig would be around 600k when we move to FBS.

Typical Dukester says that by using the Sags, JMU would likely of finished in the top 4 of the new Sunbelt on average the last 3 years under Cig. He's certainly the head coach for the move. I think his experience as an assistant on a high level FBS program will also be beneficial. Will he be successful with the increased consistent competition? Time will tell. I think our defense will hold up in the Sunbelt. I'm not as confident with the offense against better defenses, and I'm hopeful this staff can start to find/attract high caliber QBs. Prior recent coaches brought in some solid QB talent to JMU. Lee, Schor, DiNucci as transfers, and Cole as a HS recruit. Liberty has performed well due to a quality transfer QB.

Yes, Cig get's an increase, and Yes he's the one to lead us to FBS.
