Breds82 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Is his contract funded by tax payers or money brought in from football? It seems to me the only reason to give him a raise is so Stoops can allocate money to other position coaches. If not I'd be having a serious sit down chat with Stoops on why it is not justifiable.

Just like Louisville, Alabama, Ohio State and most all power 5 schools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way too much salary for that caliber of a coach, or for that matter any coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the new TV deals rolling out over the next few years, coaches salaries are going to explode.. this will look like a bargain in three years.
