Purdue football's Jeff Brohm boasts eighth best contract in nation, from a coach's view

INDIANAPOLIS — The perks of Purdue football coach Jeff Brohm's contract include a car allowance of $1,250 a month, all net income from his program's sports camps and up to $20,000 a year of Nike merchandise.

That's on top of his average annual salary of $300,000 for the length of his 8-year contract, a highest possible performance bonus of $2.52 million and supplemental compensation ranging from $3 million to $5 million each year.

Those are just some of the lucrative caveats in Brohm's contract that rank it the eighth best of NCAA Division I football head coaches in the nation, according to Daniel Kalish, managing partner with HKM Employment Attorneys in Seattle.
