In news that is not remotely shocking, Matt Maiocco is reporting Jim Tomsula is scheduled to earn $3.5 million per yearas the head coach of the San Francisco 49ers. According to Maiocco, only Gus Bradley, Mike McCoy and Ron Rivera make less than Tomsula.

Surprised there are three coaches at lower salaries.

haha.....Ron Rivera at 14-1 making a gumby salary.

Tomsula needs to be the bigger man and step down cause the Yorks wont make that move to fire him and admitt a mistake.

Why would he do that? I want him out as much as anyone but I don't him to resign. That would let the Yorks off the hook for making a piss poor decision and having to pay him. He should get every penny out of them as possible.

He can't resign. If you resign from your contract, they owe you nothing. You may even owe them something if there's language about early exit. When the owner terminates you they owe you for the balance of your contact unless there's language with a fixed settlement amount. I think there's only been 2 coaches in the NFL that didn't get their balance paid out : Kiffin (Raiders), Shanny(Redskins). The owners need to prove some negligence or failure of team rules and was the reason for Al Davis' overhead projector debacle. I think the court even sided with Davis.
I don't think York will try to prove any sort of wrong doing with Tomsula, so if he gets canned they will owe him his remaining 3 years at 2.5M/yr or $7.5M. This is why I think so many zoners are thinking York won't pull the plug, because of the payout. However if you look at the lost revenue and potential cancellations will they eclipse $7.5M? Probably. The Niners franchise was valued at #3 or 4 in the league, mostly due to a new stadium, I'm curious what the team will drop to after this season and if there's no sign of hope on the way.

Where do you get $2.5 mil a year, every place I look says he got $3.5 mil a year for 4 years.

Here is a "time line" get hired, build crappy staff of mouth breathers, bottom feeders, and rejects, watch Baalkie get canned, and you along with him....about 2-3 seasons, depending on how patient Jed is.

A mans got to vent, and web forums are just the place!

Just cant see how they are gonna try and sell another year of Tomsula. Thr fans arent buying the "tough offseason" b******t.

On one hand you can grow a pair, man up and admit you f**ked up and move on. Or you can be the most hated man in the state for the next year plus. Seems pretty easy to me.
