The only bright side I can say is, there's basically no chance of Woolard collecting any sizable portion of that bonus, which makes those figures WAY closer then you are probably assuming. And I wouldn't have much of a problem if Woolard collected those bonuses, because it means the teams are winning.

 

Anyway, playing devil's advocate here. I think Woolard needs to be gone yesterday.

South Florida's Doug Woolard has a similar arrangement, only without the limits. They were removed in June 2012 by university president Judy Genshaft, who also is a member of the NCAA Division I Board of Directors — the group of college CEO's that governs college sports' top competitive classification.

In a letter offering Woolard a three-year contract extension, Genshaft wrote that she also was providing additional annual performance incentives "to demonstrate my intent and desire for success."

Woolard, who had been limited to $30,000 per year in bonuses during his first eight years at the school, now is eligible for bonuses "in equal and cumulative amounts to the performance incentives which are earned and paid to the head coaches according to those respective employment agreements."

South Florida's head coaches have incentives totaling almost $2.5 million.

Sorry forgot to link it on the phone

So based on that and a quick internet search, Judy Genshaft has committed us to Doug Woolard through 2015.  It was the extension DW got when he extended Skip.  All the hysteria between Skippy's extension and Heath's NCAA success may have led to the pillaging.

 

And as mentioned, Judy gave this to Doug to demonstrate her intent and desire for success.  One and a half years later, we've flatlined.  I wonder if she has re-visited her intent and desire for success, at all.

This is terrible. Are we complaining to the Alumni association that our AD is overpaid?

By my math, Doug will be reach the age of 65 on February 10, 2015.

Somebody should start an Internet petition, those always work, right?

[Mike Stuben]

I never fault anyone for getting the best deal possible for themselves.

 

If you don't like DW's contract, don't blame him, blame the person who gave it to him.

Nah, just a lot of "demanding excellence" on this message board ....
