Ok, so it's obvious there are negotiations in play here between Leavitt, the 49er's, and K-State.
Knowing that, the question now is, how will OB f*ck this up and make us end up on the short end of the stick?
Most logical IMO:
- He refuses to relent on the CO-DC bullshit with Cosh.
- He refuses to match or exceed the 49er offer. The average salary of an NFL position coach is in the range of 350K. Knowing Bill, he's the low bidder, and probably by a considerable margin.
- He refuses to fire Cosh outright, apply all of that freed up salary to this contract, and offer Jim the sole DC and Assitant Head Coach title.
There's probably a litany of other ways Bill will crap the bed on this, but this seems the most apparent at this point...
