Where is the business sense in givinfpg a guy a far more prestigious job that was his life long fpdream then doubling his salary for it    Meanwhile student loans grow.

AUSTIN (KXAN) — Just a week after being named the 30th head coach in Texas football history, Tom Herman’s contract was approved by the University of Texas System Board of Regents.

“We’re delighted with that action,” Texas athletic director Mike Perrin said.

Herman has a five-year contract that starts at $5,250,000, with a $250,000 yearly escalator, to bring his base salary to $6,250,000 in the fifth and final year of his contract. At Houston, Herman was making $3,000,000.

All one can say is OMG, can priorities be anymore out of whack.

And I forgot to mention a separate report that the total cost of buyouts to make all this happen was $19 million.

So at least a $38 million expense over 5 years.

Edit:   And all with NO PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS!

Another day at 50 degrees with rain

Says it's 39° here now with a high of 47°. We have our High School game at MetLife Stadium this morning. Hope it won't be too windy and cold in there.

Morning Mayor

Good Luck To The Team!

Thanks. We're the home team and favorite to win. But we can't count those chickens just yet.

So you are Hasbrouck?

Yes.

You guys are playing high school football on a Sunday morning?  That would not happen in the South, keeping the young'uns out of church.  Yankee heathens!

I'm pretty sure that even our priest was at the game.

So you are Hasbrouck?

Yes.

I will keep up with the game.

Updates do not seem to work on my iPad.

We won 30-12. We were down 0-6 at the end of the half. Exciting game.
