Joe Paterno $2,000,000 :shocked:

Is Joe Paterno still alive? Or is Penn State paying into some trust?

 

[Downwiththefoe]

I would love to see the top 20 FCS coaches

I read an article today in the Great Falls Tribune that states Paterno only makes 500,000 a year. That is according to the state public employees retirement system. I assume that the 500,000 is his base salary and the rest is TV and radio contracts and camp fees.

I read the same thing...

Bobby Bowden just signed a one year contract extension. Isn't he 100 years old.

Didn't he have to fire his own son as OC last year
