Brandon Gets Raise, Three Year Extension

Old news, but last week while I was out, Coach Brandon was rewarded with a three-year contract extension worth about $200K per year. That puts him under contract for the next four seasons at BGSU. Most fans expected (without reason) a two year extension, but I think there is reason to think that for what we pay a coach, we might have quite a bargain in a guy who can coach and seems to want to be here.

So, unless he leaves to coach elsewhere, he will coach here until the end of the 2011 season, at a minimum. No idea what the buyout is in his contract, but those don't always seem to hold much water.

I have agonized over the coaching as much as anyone here, but he's really only had one disappointing year, and that was 2006.

Let us head to the MAC title.
