They say they want to hire you to be a “CEO” style coach of the team. No X’s and O’s, just run the football business. Because you are unproven, your salary will be whatever you currently make at whatever job you have, but you will be given the keys to the program. Hire who you want, fire who you want, do anything you want, you just have to work within the currently established budget of your program.
If, after four years, the team you took over has a winning record (over those four years), you will get a balloon salary payment of $20M or $5M a year for four years and you can renegotiate a new deal or retire or do whatever. If you fail, you are required to pay back the School the salary that you received over the past 4 years and you can’t work athletics ever again, so you can’t take your football experience elsewhere. If you did a good job, this could set you up nicely for a leadership type position somewhere else I guess.
Do you think you could get a winning record, would you take the offer?
