ImAZipFan Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 Reports are that he'll be a position coach, possibly TE coach. That being said, he'd likely be paid south of the $300k per our contract with him. From what I understand, we'd still be responsible for the difference. Or, if you were at Kansas, knowing he had 3 years on somebody else's nickel, would you go in and not pay him as much and let his prior employer pick up the tab? Thoughts? ...Not for being a good coach or ever coming here, but thank you for finding a job so we don't have to pay you! Thank you Kansas.

It was his choice to take a job that is not as a head coach. We may not have to pay him anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skip-zip Posted December 15, 2011 Report Share Posted December 15, 2011 I've heard so much about the details of his contract that I am even more confused than ever. But, even though we might not know the exact details, we do know that ICoach getting a new job relieves us of a nice chunk of what we owe him. And that's great news.

akronad Posted December 22, 2011 Report Share Posted December 22, 2011 This is from Akron News Now. The Rob Ianello era is done at the University of Akron. The University announcing this afternoon the former football coach will take a one-time payout of $250,000 to ease out of his contract. Ianello had three years remaining but needed to free himself to take a coaching position elsewhere; the deal saves the University $750,000 over the three-year period. The deal still requires Board of Trustees approval. - - - (University of Akron) Under the terms of an agreement reached Tuesday, Dec. 20, The University of Akron announced that former head football coach Rob Ianello will resign from the university to accept a coaching position elsewhere. Ianello will forego three years of guaranteed employment with The University of Akron, with a base salary and benefits totaling in excess of $ 1 million, in return for receiving a one-time $250,000 payment – a savings of more than $750,000 in salary and benefits he would have received had he stayed at The University of Akron in a reassigned position for the three years remaining on his contract. The agreement will be recommended by President Luis Proenza for approval by the University’s Board of Trustees at its next meeting, scheduled for January 18, 2012.

phil Posted December 22, 2011 Report Share Posted December 22, 2011 Great News? 2 years agoe Wistricil fired JD Brookhart with one year left in his contract and paid him approximately $200,000 not to coach our football team. He hires Coach I, gives him a 5 year contract. We now have the worst division 1 football team in the nation. He fires Coach I and we now pay Coach I $250,000 not to coach our football team. Nobody in the country wants to coach our football team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That adds up to what...like $500,000 per win over the course of his "career?" Iannello is smarter than anyone gives him credit for. Who's signature is on the check?
