LOL. Pay all that money for him and he does that at one of the biggest meets.

I saw a lot of Cyclone fans call that tweet pretty cringe but so many of them just can't stop sucking his dick and admit he said something stupid and unprofessional.

The Rooney Rule requires at least some interviews. There is no chance they offered someone a job without an interview.

He absolutely interviewed with the Lions. He probably did get an offer.

The complete control thing? LOL. No.

That would make him one of the top ~6 paid coaches in the NFL, but Matt Rhule just got $8.5 jumping up from Baylor...so maybe that's the going rate.

It makes some sense. Your salary is going to be a combination of what you can demand and what it takes to get you to leave a previous job. P5 head coaches are generally making more than NFL coordinators, even more than position coaches and infinitely more than unemployed coaches, so it sets the starting level higher.

If he was offered $8.5m per year and didn't take it, he is the biggest idiot of all time. It would take him like 15+ years at Iowa State to make that sort of money.
It also wouldn’t hurt his ability to get a P5 job. He could take it, win 9 games in 3.5 years, and still get a comparable or better job than Iowa State out of that.

It also wouldn’t hurt his ability to get a P4 job in a couple more years. He could take it, win 9 games in 3.5 years, and still get a comparable or better job than Iowa State out of that.

There's positioning on both sides here. Yes Campbell's side wants his name to stay out there as a hot commodity, but the Lions want to avoid the impression that the guy they did get was a second tier choice.

My suspicion is that they did talk, and a number was discussed, but they never actually got to the formal offer stage.
