Updated: Mike Stoops’ contract details
CAMPUS CORNER — Let’s just start over.
I cited a report earlier today that said Mike Stoops would make $245,000 a year as OU’s new defensive coordinator. It seemed way low, but I thought it might have had something to do with his Arizona buyout.
It didn’t. Turns out that was the base salary, and the reporter neglected to add the personal services/fundraising portion.
Splashing in that measly $355,000, Stoops will make $600,000 in 2012.
Yeah, that sounds more like it. I apologize for running with the wrong info while I worked on the Tim Kish story.
It’s a three-year deal. If Stoops stays for the 2013 season, he will earn a $50,000 bonus. He’ll receive another $50K the next year, if he stays.
That takes the total value of the contract to $1.9 million, or $633,333 a year.
One more incentive-based bonus: Stoops is also eligible for another $60K, should OU win a national championship.
