Crap. Now Barta's gotta give Ferentz a raise again so Iowa can lead the country in overpaid coaches compared to performance.

 

[EvilMonkeyInTheCloset]

Why Bielema left. That and so he could pay assistants more but move back fired on big Bert.

As far as I'm concerned all these coaches are overpaid.

The Harbaugh salary seems absolutely laughable right now.

The Texas A&M coach gets $10M!

This is what I don't get. Record should be a justifiable cause to fire a coach. Poor performance is certainly a reason to let most any other employee go without paying them for several unworked years.

Exactly this. Wisconsin doesn’t pony up the big bucks for head coaches or assistants

Yep The only team in the Big Ten getting less value compared to what their paying thanMichigan is Illinois.

Lovie It’s flat out fleecing Illinois. $3 million a year for an absolutely horrible coach!
