2.5 is starting point these days for BCS schools. I think Jones' Contract really helped a bunch of BCS Coaches and Patterson huge raises. Is Jones even in Top 40 these days?

So much BS all these alleged contract offers.

Urban was originally going to get $6 million a year.

Just BS to sell newspapers.

The early reports out of Boise were that Petersen wasn't even interested in the job so how can he have received and turned down a $ 4 Million offer?

TOTAL BS!

But I'd still watch out for JJ the master of keeping everything quiet until it is a DONE DEAL!

How much do we all trust JJ?

BTW It is PetersEn with an E

29 Coaches with Total Compensation of 2 Million or above-but some probably get performance bonuses

"The honeybadger" use was retired before this football season started. There is now only one application for that term:

JJ is here for a while. I don't think anyone will offer IMO.

What is Peterson's deal? Boise's luck will only run for so long. They don't have ANYTHING to offer recruits except that they've been a good team for a few years.

If I'm Peterson, I take the money and run away from that sh*thole

Petersen is making 1.6 mil a year( a lot on Idaho) with low pressure. I don;t think he wants the pressure cooker of UCLA for any amount of money.
