per Shama:
Financial incentives in coach Jerry Kill’s contract include a $50,000 payout if the Gophers win Thursday’s game against Missouri in the Buffalo Wild Wings Citrus Bowl.
The new contract Kill and the University of Minnesota agreed to last February includes a two-page Exhibit A document detailing “annual incentive bonuses” that can boost his income beyond the over $2 million guaranteed compensation he receives. Among those bonuses is $50,000 for a bowl victory against a team from the ACC, Big 12, Pac-12 or SEC. Missouri is a member of the SEC, or Southeastern Conference.
Just by getting the Gophers to a bowl game, Kill earned a $50,000 payout. Other $50,000 bonuses achieved in 2014 are for being named Big Ten Coach of the Year and leading the Gophers to five conference wins (5-3 record). It’s common for major head coaches like Kill to have incentive bonuses.
Kill’s guaranteed compensation total for 2014-15 is $2.1 million. That amount increases through the duration of his contract to $2.5 million in 2018-19. Kill’s $2.1 million is less than seven other Big Ten head football coaches receive, according to a November 20 article by USA Today detailing compensation earned by college coaches nationally.
