Does a Coach perform better if he makes more money?
Just wondering......

What I'm curious about is what helps a coach progress faster, if anything.

That's a good question also.
There has to be some kind of incentive (somewhere) that determines how the Coaches do their job.

No, there's no link to what you pay a coach and how well he does. His trending is set when he is generated. The benefit to paying your coach well is that you reduce the other teams' ability to poach him.

Thank you, JD. And I'm assuming they can be poached at ANY time? Even if under contract?

They can be poached only during early FA, and the conditions are that you offer them a promotion (which means one step higher or more in the coaching hierarchy) and are matching their salary or giving them a raise. Also, if they signed their current contract in the current year they cannot be poached.

That was my concern, thanks again.
