Here’s a recent college football story via The AP:
Rich Rodriguez left West Virginia 17 years ago in part because he was frustrated over the school’s refusal to give him more money for his assistant coaches.
He’ll have plenty for them this time around.
Under his memorandum of understanding signed Dec. 11 and obtained by The Associated Press through a Freedom of Information Act request, Rodriguez signed a five-year agreement and will be paid $3.5 million in his first season. That figure increases $100,000 in each subsequent season. His predecessor, Neal Brown earned $4 million this season before being fired on Dec. 1.
Rodriguez also will have a $5 million pool annually for his on-field assistant coaches along with $2.5 million for his football support staff, according to the agreement.
The 61-year-old Rodriguez was introduced Friday for his second stint in Morgantown. He went 60-26 at West Virginia from 2001 to 2007.
The Mountaineers went 6-6 this season under Brown and will meet No. 25 Memphis in the Frisco Bowl on Tuesday night.
After he left for Michigan in December 2007, Rodriguez has said promises made by a previous administration at West Virginia were not kept and his request for more money for his assistant coaches was rejected. Rodriguez said his relationship with then-athletic director Ed Pastilong had disintegrated by August 2007 to the point that the two men barely spoke.
In December 2006, Rodriguez considered and then turned down a six-year, $12-million offer to coach at Alabama — a job later taken by Nick Saban. Rodriguez then was given a $100,000 supplemental payment for his assistant coaches at West Virginia. He said later that, prior to leaving for Michigan, he was denied another request for an additional $50,000 for the assistant coaches pool.
Rodriguez spent three seasons at Michigan and six at Arizona before being fired from each head coaching job. He spent the last three seasons as head coach at Jacksonville State, which won the Conference USA championship game over Western Kentucky earlier this month.
Under his agreement, West Virginia will pay Rodriguez’s $1.25 million buyout to Jacksonville State. He’ll be required to pay 25% of his total compensation over the life of the agreement if he leaves before the contract expires, and Rodriguez will receive 50% of his remaining total compensation if he’s fired.

Wide range of bills pass during grand finale to Ohio’s legislative session: Capitol Letter
Rotunda Rumblings
Final countdown: The 135th Ohio General Assembly’s two-year session culminated in a flurry of activity Wednesday, as lawmakers worked late into the night to pass – or shoot down – a wide range of bills on what’s expected to be the end of their “lame-duck” session. Here’s more on what lawmakers did:
Sex, God and school: Legislators gave final approval to House Bill 8, which combines the so-called “Parents Bill of Rights” (which would require schools to notify parents of any sexuality content and changes in the students’ physical or mental health) with a bill that requires all public school districts to adopt a policy allowing released time for religious instruction. Laura Hancock reports that the LGBTQ community is worried about students whose parents could punish them if they find out from school officials that they’re gay or transgender.
Night moves: Lawmakers wrapped up their marathon session around 2:15 a.m. Thursday by passing House Bill 315, which a legislative conference committee had shortly beforehand filled up with a litany of policy items large and small. Jake Zuckerman has more on what lawmakers packed into the bill, including proposals to protect “medical free speech,” create a Dolly Parton Imagination Library specialty license plate, and codify two executive orders from Gov. Mike DeWine allowing college athletes and their schools to enter into marketing and endorsement deals.
SLAPP at intimidation: State lawmakers also passed legislation that takes aim at the use of the courts to silence critics from exercising free speech for fear of expensive litigation, Robert Higgs and Hancock report. The bill, which now goes to DeWine for approval, would combat a civil action known as a “Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation,” or more simply a SLAPP – a legal action used by deep-pocketed plaintiffs that makes claims such as defamation and invasion of privacy to intimidate people exercising their rights to free speech.
Suspensions: A bill that would add threatening manifestos, hit lists, social media posts and other behavior to the list of student behavior that can result in a yearlong suspension is headed to DeWine’s desk. As Hancock reports, before passing Senate Bill 206, the Senate tacked on several amendments, including allowing a charter school known as OHDELA to get up to two years of relief from closing due to low report card scores. Another amendment would give the Ohio Department of Education and Workforce an additional $4.1 million to handle the administration work around private school vouchers.
Word is bond: Ohio voters will decide during next year’s May 6 primary election whether to approve another $2.5 billion in state bonds to help pay for local infrastructure projects. As Jeremy Pelzer reports, lawmakers overwhelmingly supported re-upping the bond program and appropriated $15 million to offset the cost of staging an election on the measure in parts of the state that otherwise have nothing to vote on during the May primary.
Sextortion: Lawmakers passed legislation Wednesday creating new felony offenses for “sextortion” crimes. As Zuckerman reports, the bill targets those who use the nude image of another as leverage to induce them to send money or commit another offense.
Licensed to bill: State lawmakers passed legislation around 10:15 p.m. Wednesday designed to dramatically limit the number of Ohioans whose drivers licenses are suspended over unpaid debts. As Zuckerman reports, the bill will help those convicted of drug offenses (if no car is involved), truancy or owing court costs keep their license.
Pay out: A last-minute push by some House Republicans to approve pay increases for lawmakers and a variety of local elected officials died in the Senate. As Pelzer reports, Senate President Matt Huffman suggested that the pay-raise plan would benefit too many different elected officials for the Senate GOP’s liking.
Low energy: The Senate also killed legislation that would revive energy efficiency programs in Ohio, designed to reduce the state’s aggregate electricity consumption. As Jake Zuckerman reports, 2019 legislation at the center of a statehouse bribery scandal ended the programs. Senators canceled a Wednesday morning committee vote on the bill.
Defense conservation: The U.S. Senate on Wednesday voted overwhelmingly to back a National Defense Authorization bill that includes several non-defense related measures championed by U.S. Rep. Dave Joyce, a South Russell Republican, Sabrina Eaton writes. The package includes a bill authored by Joyce called the Wildlife Innovation and Longevity Driver Reauthorization (WILD) Act. It reauthorizes a program that enables wildlife and habitat conservation in all 50 states and territories, and the Multinational Species Conservation Fund, which supports the global conservation of imperiled species, including rhinos, elephants, tigers, great apes, and turtles.
Brown bill advances: The U.S. Senate on Wednesday voted 73-27 to advance consideration of the “Social Security Fairness Act” sponsored by U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown, a Cleveland Democrat. It would repeal laws that keep around 3 million Americans – including an estimated 250,000 Ohioans – from getting their full Social Security benefits because they’re also getting public pensions that didn’t withhold Social Security taxes. “I urge all my colleagues on both sides to join us, restore the Social Security that people who protect us and serve us have earned over a lifetime of work,” Brosn said before the vote. The bill passed the House of Representatives earlier this year with support from all its Ohio members.
Vance for president: Departing GOP U.S. Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah told CNN’s State of the Union that he believes Vice President-elect JD Vance will be the Republican Party’s 2028 presidential nominee, The Hill reports. “MAGA is the Republican Party, and Donald Trump is the Republican Party today,” Romney said. “And if you were to ask me who the nominee will be in 2028, it’ll be JD Vance.” Romney, who was the GOP’s 2012 presidential nominee, said Vance will likely be the next GOP leader because he is smart, well-spoken and believes in the MAGA movement.

“As a high school senior, Sherrod, one day, got together with his friends, Paul and John, to organize a rally in Mansfield to honor the very first day Earth Day in 1970. This is what he did. He organized rallies. Some people went to ball games. Some people watch TV. Some people went out to restaurants. Sherrod organized rallies.”
– U.S. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, a New York Democrat, in a speech honoring departing U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown of Ohio, a Cleveland Democrat.
