Without a media deal, they don't really know what they can pay

Maybe it's be $50 mil per team, since that's what the Pac-12 is supposed to be worth!

Currently, talks are centered around budgets, NIL, and staff requirements. Utah State's move to the PAC is appealing, but because there is no media deal in place, it's hard to project what $$$ will look like.

Jay Hill and at least one other MW coach finalists for Utah State head coach

Highly doubt Bronco wants to come back to Utah to coach

Utah state feels like career suicide.

They have had multiple coaches get huge paydays by coaching at USU

That's true but it's in a really really bad spot right now.

It was in a bad spot when Gary Anderson took over the first time

That was pre-NIL. Jay will lose good players to BYU, Utah, other P5s every year

I hope Jay Hill is the only name leaked because he is leveraging for a raise.

Doesn't seem like Jay Hill would take that one. Curious on the money.

I can predict that it's not great! There's not much TV space/$ left.

I hope he doesn't take that job. In fact, I hope he doesn't even interview,

If he's a finalist, he has already interviewed.

Nov 24, 8:33pm

I wonder if that affected the defense yesterday then

They should take ARod

Nov 24, 8:33pm

Just give him a big raise and move forward. USU is a dead-end G5 job.

Nov 24, 8:33pm

Some SB Nation guy has the scoop on Jay Hill? …. I doubt that.

The 435

Nov 24, 8:34pm

BYU will pay him more than Utah State will.

Nov 24, 8:36pm

If Jay has actually interviewed for the job, that seems pretty risky with his recent heart challenges. I'm not one to

Is this from a reliable source?

Nov 24, 8:36pm

I doubt Hill goes there. Probably just a show for some leverage.

Not a big enough step up from Weber St. Wait for something better.

Nov 24, 8:40pm

At Weber at least he had a fighting chance to establish a winning program.

Nov 24, 8:44pm

If Jay is distracted with interviewing maybe it is distracting from game prep

Aside from team step down, that admin is a dumpster fire. He should ask the last coach.
