Joseph Duarte ‏@Joseph_Duarte
. @UHouston BOR chair Fertitta says school will increase @CoachTomHerman annual salary from $1.3 to 3 million when he agrees to deal

$3 million/year would make Tom Herman the highest-paid Group of 5 HC by a substantial margin. $800K more than Tuberville in 2nd.

That didn't take long!

3 million is peanuts for that P5 invite and huge payday.

The 3 million is not what will keep him or let him leave. It is the buy out. Find out what that is and you will know how serious each side is.

That being said, I fully expect Houston to be in a power 5 conference soon.

And our big push was a few Gameday signs and hired holders.
