    Default Klieman is getting paid now (extension)

    Ol' coach Chris K got a nice extension today.

    Kansas State has agreed to a new contract with Chris Klieman that will pay the football coach $23.5 million and last until 2026.

    The new deal was reached early into his second season with the Wildcats. He has guided the team to a 10-6 record, including a 2-1 start this year. In his first year in Manhattan, he helped K-State go 8-5 and play in the Liberty Bowl.

    Under his new deal, Klieman will make $3.1 million in 2021. His salary will increase to $3.5 million in 2022 and then $4 million in 2023 and then stabilize at $4.3 million throughout the final three years of his deal.

    Klieman’s new contract also contains some unique performance-based incentives.

    One of them even triggers an extra year’s salary of $4.3 million getting tacked on to the end of his deal. According to a copy of his contract, Klieman will receive a one-year extension every time the Wildcats win eight games and play in a bowl game between now and 2023. Because K-State will only play 10 games this season, Klieman can also trigger that bonus by winning six games and reaching the postseason in 2020.

    Way to go Coach K!!!!!

    What I heard was between 30 and 40 players were out for that game. Maybe 9 starters?
