I give him a pass on grandfathering.<BR/><BR/>PS: He lives in the same neighborhood as my grandmother. While it is certainly a modest ranch home compared to the typical college coach, don't get too excited - it's a very expensive neighborhood these days by local standards.M1EKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12041791804881707751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30714045.post-83344529394289779492007-05-15T09:46:00.000-04:002007-05-15T09:46:00.000-04:00Jan Murphy's 'work' - investigative journalism at ...Jan Murphy's 'work' - investigative journalism at it's finest.Pete the Streakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10724942064619677420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30714045.post-41929312911998240972007-05-15T08:58:00.000-04:002007-05-15T08:58:00.000-04:00I agree that his salary is nobody's business.

I assume his salary is quite large, but he is worth every penny. He has been more than just an awesome football coach to the university. He has provided what his family needs and has given back to the university 3-fold for what he earns. When you look at charitable donations (the university and other charities)that he has donated to, and the amount of those donations, it would take his "net" salary down quite a bit. Knowing JoePa's attitude on many things, I would imagine he would say "here's my salary, how does that change anything?" The bottom line is that this reporter has "penis envy" over his salary and what good he done compared to her meaningless articles in a regional newspaper. I can't imagine that this is the best way to utilize our judicial system, or the tax dollars that fund it. Uncover something that is worthwhile Jan, not something that doesn't make a difference in anybody's lives.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
