Noooooooo

Would have been nice to have gotten at least one complete recruiting cycle out of him before he left. Certainly never thought he was a long timer and it was pretty obvious he was just looking for a spot to get back into the coaching circle and we provided that.

I'll be interested to see what his salary is next year at FSU. I heard he was going to be close to $200M next year with a much larger role here.

That would make him the highest paid coach

EVER!

I'm glad we saved the $200M in that case.

So FSU gets mad at Ole Miss and takes Brewster, damn ESPN**

I said he would be short term after meeting him at the 120 club and speaking with him at
length but I didn't think this short term. Oh well!

So, what's that mean? About half of our positions will have a new coach next year?

2012:
Keoning - OC/QB
Brewster - WR
Sallach - TEs

Hevesy - OL
Chris Wilson - DL/DC
Geoff Collins - LB/DC
Melvin Smith - CB
Tony Hughes - S

Honestly, with the exception of Brewester leaving, every staff change was for the better.

In ancient Rome. But when abbreviating dollar amounts K=Thousand, M=Million.

In the banking, accounting and financial world, M=thousands and MM=millions.

Maybe so, but that's not common parlance, nor is it how it's used in the International System of Units. When most people see M they think "million."

Uh, no. Thousand is K (stands for Kilo). M is million. B is billion. That's current standard practice.

Not sure if you're agreeing that M is thousand in engineering or not ... but it's not. I've been an engineer for over 45 years, and K is thousand, M is million. And that includes the financial side since I was a technical contract manager, responsible for funding and technical direction.

Well, when dealing with money...

yeah I guess it would pretty much fall in the realm of banking, accounting, or financial.

Must be K said with a Cajun accent. I've worked with a lot with folks at Michoud and K is thousand to them too. What kind of engineering are you taking about ... maybe it's one that's not familiar to me.

Oh ... and engineers never put a line through a 7 to distinguish it from a 1 since they look nothing alike when properly written. We do, however, put a mark through a Z to distinguish it from a 2. Leave the former to the accounting types .... **

Be sure and tweet him. He may stay.**

Seriously, if you do tweet him, just tell him thanks, congrats, and to enjoy college football's Double A.

Of the dozens of copanies I've audited, maybe 2 used M=,000/MM=,000,000.

In the banking, accounting and financial world, M=thousands and MM=millions.

And in my post auditing career, none of the companies I've worked for used that either. It's always k for thousands and M for millions. That crosses many a country border in my experience as well.

The technically correct answer may be the M/MM system, but I've rarely seen it used in practice or outside of a textbook.

All that said, if you were writing something formal, you would just write the word thousand or word million to make sure there is no confusion.

I work in coporate financing. Every lending instition (Bank or Equity) that I work with uses M and MM.

"A/R increased by $734.4M to $16.8MM"

We use this system, as well. I always have to remind myself the difference... it took me a long time to get used to it. I work in finance, btw.

Same for me. I've worked in corporate lending at 2 seperate large banks and both used M and MM. Obviously, I can't speak for every bank but I never have to explain to the FDIC or OCC what that means. So, I can only assume its common in the financial world. Also, didn't mean to start a debate just say I understood what the original poster was saying.

Well banks are the devil then...

Maybe it varies by industry? It's been a very long time since I've worked on a banking client, maybe it was one of those that I'm recalling using the M/MM.
