WTF is the VP of Strategic Engagement? He must have some mob ties to get a job like that. I bet he is a "button"!

200k 'base salary'...

Good for him and smart move for the school

What happened to "going pro"..

 

[Beentown]

The Pro teams vetted him and found his mob ties...I'm tellin ya!

He is allowed, he would just be suspended five games, and miss the bowl, if they went to one. That punishment goes away after five years if he does not coach.. Funny article explaining it, seeing how they suggested akron hire him in December...

He wouldn't be any good there. They already get paid.
