In a story by the AP this morning, it was announced that Frank Solich
will be making $200,000 this year which exceeds TO's by $50,000
Here is a snip:
"The $200,000 base salary for new Nebraska football coach
Frank Solich will exceed what former coach Tom Osborne earned by
$50,000, the Omaha World-Herald reported Sunday. Solich has not
signed a contract. Chancellor James Moeser and Gary Fouraker,
associate athletics director for business, said Saturday that
Nebraska is considering a 5-year deal. Compensation also would
include a $25,000 endowed chair and undisclosed outside revenue
from summer football camps, athletic apparel contracts and radio
and television promotions."

At least one Regent (Drew Miller) said no to Solich's salary saying it
was "big and unnecessary".
