...But I do have good news: I just saved a bunch of money by switching head coaches

WVU released the base salaries for its new football coaching staff today. The long and short of it is this: in spite of dramatically increasing the payroll for assistant coaches (Doc Holliday, for one, comes in at $400,000) we're still $300,000 under last year's total allotment.
