$550k salary and subsequent pension is my guess. I have no idea but I'll bet his state retirement pension is pretty good with that salary. From a 20 year perspective, I would imagine his best route is to sit tight.I don't know that a revolving door helps any organization - in fact I know it won't. That said, at nearly every job I have been in, at around years 5-7, I start to feel stale, and I feel a need to move on. I believe that Governor Sullivan used to say that people are like potted plants and need to find a new, larger container to grow every 4 or so years. TB has been at UW a VERY long time. I know that a lot has been changing in college athletics - no doubt to make things more exciting - but how does HE not feel stale? I know he is a Laramie guy - but it seems that athletics are marked by those that are ascending (leaving for better jobs) and those that are descending (those that are in the same space or are fired). I don't get how he hasn't felt a need to move on beyond the local ties he has (which would actually make me MORE inclined to want to move up/on).
Why he didn't jump earlier? Bear Claw is probably right.
