They already have sustained success going on. I don't like pelini, but it isn't like they are chopped liver either.

    I think it would take a very special situation for him to leave.

    There is a penalty payment to NDSU tied to the exercise of that clause.

It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow.

    The problem Nebraska has with their coach is not the number of wins, it's that he's an asshole.

    I'm sure one that any hiring BCS school would have no problem buying out.

    The Washington job is far more concerning. Big conference, big money a place at the table when the 4 team playoff program takes effect next year.

    Here it is from the contract:


    (b) If, within 90 days of resignation, Coach accepts a head coaching assignment for another NCAA football program, Coach shall pay to NDSU the sum of $100,000 unless such other football program is eligible for an automatic conference berth in a BCS Bowl Game in which event Coach shall pay to NDSU a sum equal to twice his then-current salary ($206,503 + 5% a year starting July 1st, 2013) established in Paragraph 2.1 (without adjustment for any customary University fringe benefits).

    So, if he leaves for any other NCAA program, he pays $100,000 in a penalty. If he leaves for a BCS eligible program, the penalty is twice his current salary. For some reason, I thought it was the other way around where it was less painful to go to a BCS program. The school is basically betting he won't leave for anything but a BCS Bowl eligible program. Any BCS program that comes calling will have to cough up close to a half million before even discussing Bohl's salary.

    He has already racked up $15,000 in bonuses with the conference title and one home playoff game. Another $20k with the road to and including a three-peat. He doesn't get a take on playoff seats, but with his 3% of gross home single game and season tickets revenue, I am sure he had a good year in that part. That has to be in the $90k area. Media and personal appearances and such (another $65k), he is doing alright money wise in the little town of Fargo.

    My favorite part of his contract. He has exclusive priority to Dakota Practice Facility and the dome over any other NDSU athletic team.

    The more I read his contract, the more it seems it was written with the idea he isn't going anywhere without NDSU getting something back and making it a little bit painful for someone going after him.

    His previous contract made it easy for him to go to an FBS team. There was no penalty in that contract for a higher level job.

    He would have no interest in WYO. Things have been in the dumps for so long. If he goes....it will be to a quality BCS program for a shit ton of cash.

    This guy isn't to happy we found his tweet. Just fantastic.

    @MrTitleist: @Bwahlberg These NDSU fans are fucking insane. They're trolling my WyoNation acct for mentioning Bohl as a HC candidate.
