per Sid:
Gophers athletic director Norwood Teague, who apparently didn’t have any interest in the Virginia Tech AD opening as was once reported, said this week that he and the administration are working on a new contract for football coach Jerry Kill and that an announcement will be made soon.
Kill, whose contract for $1.2 million per year is one of the lowest in the Big Ten, did receive some bonuses this year because the Gophers went to the Texas Bowl. By comparison, Wisconsin football coach Gary Andersen — who was contacted by the Cleveland Browns about their head coaching job but declined to pursue it — is being paid $1.9 million, with a $100,000 raise each year.
“We’re trying to bang [Kill’s new contract] out,” Teague said. “These things take time and come down to things that are legal and certainly we want it to move faster, but we’re in good shape there. We’re going to get him right very soon.”
