Big Ten $$$

This breakdown of Big 10 coaching salaries is interesting:

$1.5 million: Kirk Ferentz, Iowa
$1.5 million: John L. Smith, Michigan State
$1.5 million: Glen Mason, Minnesota
$1.4 million: Jim Tressel, Ohio State
$1.35 million: Barry Alvarez, Wisconsin
$1.3 million: Joe Paterno, Penn State
$1.052 million: Lloyd Carr, Michigan
$1 million: Ron Zook, Illinois
$1 million: Joe Tiller, Purdue
$950,000: Randy Walker, Northwestern
$600,000: Terry Hoeppner, Indiana

Based on performance, I'd say Joe Tiller is a steal at $1 million per year. At this point in his career, JoPa is waaaay overpaid. Terry Hoeppner is a bargain at $600,000...the man can coach.
