Coach Kennedy new 4 year contract

Soft Snowflake
Sure thing Sally.

Griz fans don't want to come to main threads on eGriz.com and see political rubbish. Take it to the dedicated politics thread.

You are dumb as a box of rocks and should just delete your account.

Posters run circles around you here because you have no idea what you are talking about - no clue about the Griz or football in general.
 
Great article!

This part was interesting to me:
"I’d heard from multiple people that a lot of our players were heavily courted - but obviously none took off for other opportunities. The BK effect! The players love this guy and want to play for him. To me this was / is a pretty firm affirmation from his players, especially considering the opportunities that many were given to move on."

More than one person on here said that the reason players didn't leave is because it was too late in the cycle. What you wrote proves otherwise. I'm more thankful than ever for BK and the fact that everybody stuck around.

This is also GREAT news:
"Grizzly football has really put their a nutrition program on a pedestal, has ramped up investment into their current nutritionist, and has engaged with a regional supplement company for NCAA-approved supplements to help the team with training and development. They’re now engaging with more advanced analytics as well and have broadened their adaptation to more current methods in these fields that were (allegedly) previously rebuffed. BK appears to be planning to run this team far more in the fashion that we see modern day P5 coaches and NFL coaches run their teams."

Is it August yet? I'm ready for FOOTBALL.

It's a weird world of NIL out there - sounds like many guys that had some $$ offers during the normal transfer window had word relayed back to them once it reopened that the $$ was still there - or in some cases even more.
 
Pretty sure that is $175K...but still shows he is invested in the program since he made $212K one year at Texas. His resume as an assistant speaks for itself. I think soon his resume as a head coach will do the same.
He shouldn’t have any problem getting to about $285 with the listed incentives and that doesn’t include money from the coaches show, camps, endorsements or other sources.

It’s embarrassing that the Griz coach is making $175k base and will likely top out around $300k whereas Brent Vigen is making $295,000 base and is going to make over $600,000 total compensation. Is the Cats coaching position literally twice as desirable as the Griz and deserves double the pay? I have my doubts on that given the Cat Griz rivalry all time record.

One coach is certainly more accomplished than the other. As a lead maintenance tech, i'd be pretty pissed if young Joe Schmo with no experience come in making what i make.

Nothing Vigen has done in Bozeman is groundbreaking. They couldn’t beat NDSU, so they hired a guy from the NDSU tree who implements the NDSU playbook, which in addition to game schemes also includes the head coach showing interest in other jobs….AD assembles the booster/admin and voila a new extension comes together. Rinse and repeat.

if Coach BK wasn't happy with the contract, he could've refused to sign it and be held to the 1 year deal. He knows if he does well he can increase the base and total compensation.

Stop trying to be Coach BK's contract lawyer and negotiator. Let him cook.

The contract is fine from BK perspective he can make more money than he ever has. From UM’s perspective it looks like they are signaling that their head coach position is worth only half MSU. Most people would say the UM is a stronger program than NAU particularly with NAU’s noted financial challenges/lack of support yet NAU’s coach is making $280,000 base.
