Getting a 10 year 95 million dollar extension from Michigan St. Please tell me again how we'll have high quality candidates lining up to take our money. Michigan St isn't even a blue blood.
 
Holy shit. Not that I ever thought we would have anything like decent candidates lining up, but that is going to foment some massive inflation in coaching salaries to the extent we didn't already have it. That's even more than the Aggies paid Jimbo a few years ago, and that was a crazy number at the time (believe it was $75m over 10 years with no buyout if he left).
 
I personally think Mel Tucker is going to be an NFL coach. Perhaps this move gets him top NFL bucks and also rallies the MSU fan base that their administration is serious about being on top of the Big-10.

Wow.

Good for him. Leaving CU after one year was obviously a good move.

This is just another example of what a dumb shyt Rolovich was. With a quality coaching effort, WSU is an 8-4 team this year. With all these job openings he probably would have been up for a big raise or been able to move up the coaching ladder.
 
Agreed on the stupidity of Rolovich. The number of jobs that pay $3M+ annually are limited.

The job security he had here, with his buy-out etc., was very high. You had the opportunity to advance your career and earnings -- frankly to create wealth for this family - forever - and choose the "pride" road.

Rolo likely thinks he'll get his shot again and he will likely be the last one laughing. Hawaii might give him another shot, but nothing is guaranteed.

Foolish financial decision, but maybe he's not worried about "the money."
 
After the Fed gets done printing money, $10Million will buy a few loaves of bread.
Just heard a news report that said one of only the items that has NOT scene massive inflation is alcohol. Surprised the hell out of me. Must be an increase in supply because demand remains strong at my house.

Michigan State has a couple billionaire alums.
 
Apparently his new contract was drawn up and funded by 2 donors. So who is going to step here? Ed?
