Even if his pay stayed the same (which obviously It didn’t) his income probably essentially doubled with cost of living.

OK, it’s more significant than I realized. He’s going from $400k to $3mm per year. That might be worth it.

The Tampa Bay Times did a FOIA request on emails related to FSU's search and Bob Stoops.

One guy not impressed with Norvell:
“I would like to reach out and say that if you guys are planning on hiring anyone besides of the following names of (Bob Stoops, James Franklin, Chris Petersen) you might as well shut down this football program!”

Or his follow-up four days later, after news broke that FSU was hiring Norvell away from Memphis. That email included 16 expletives and three pictures of defecating rhinoceroses.

Another guy not a fan of CMC, although he's confused as to which conference ISU is in.
The most frequent emailer, Steve Rodriguez, seemed initially skeptical of Stoops, too. He feared Stoops would “take your money and not work hard.” He didn’t like Minnesota’s P.J. Fleck, either (“odd rep and is from up north”), nor did he like Iowa State’s Matt Campbell (“Too young, coaches in a conference that has slow fat people other than Ohio State”).

Makes you wonder what kind of e-mails JP gets...

With that kind of raise you could go live in Pullman for a few years and then retire back to Hawaii and not have to deal with the whole "job" problem. Worth it. Pullman can't be that bad.

That's where I differ from these head coaches, I obviously don't have the same drive as them. I'd be thinking the same as you, coach for maybe 10 years at a salary of 3-5 million, live modestly and retire at a decent age.

Did Nebraska's contact finally expire? IIRC, Nebraska owed him the difference between his salary with Nebraska and whatever his new position was so he took a position coach job at Younstown State to stick it to kNU even though he could have gotten nearly any coordinator job he wanted.

I would have to think he was finally off the books at Nebraska as it's been 6-7 years. He was also head coach at Youngstown.
