Also, there is no way to account for the "big head" factor and all the months of celebrating that followed the huge Orange Bowl win, reminiscent of the 1981 basketball team which lost five or six straight to kick off the next season. Throw a coaching transition in there with different disciplinary approaches and you get what you got.

Hmmm.... Frank http://hellinthehall.wordpress.com/ Charlie,

Bozich makes quite a bit more than $50k a year. Brohm gets $5mil over 4 years, not 3. Certainly nothing to sneeze at, but a far cry from $30 million. It's a shame and alot of the blame falls on Steve Kragthorpe for screwing up the transition at UofL. Let’s get some facts straight. Bozich makes quite a bit more than $50k a year.

It seems to me that Mr. Bozich may be suffering with a bit of salary envy...if Rick is making...say $50,000 a yr., it would take him 100 years to equal what Brian is making in 3. Brian did the right thing by staying true to his hometown, university and teammates and staying at UofL his senior season. If Brian can manage to "limp by" at $1.666 mil a yr...and proves to be the top quality QB we all think he has in him, then the salry boost will come. I'll start clipping coupons for him, though...just in case, and maybe Oscar, Jeff and Greg can chip in and buy him an old junker to drive around until he gets his feet underneath him. Maybe Bozich will bless us with an article about how short and underweight Elvis Dumervil is next. Gee, Brian is getting only $5 mil over 3 years?
