University of Illinois trustees today are expected to sign off on amendments to three UI head coaches' contracts. In addition to more years for wrestling's Jim Heffernan and more money for gymnastics' Kim Landrus and Justin Spring, all three deals include provisions for "90 percent of the net profit of any camps and clinics" operated by the UI.
A few other "side money" tidbits The News-Gazette came across in reviewing documents obtained via a Freedom of Information request:
— The coach with the highest earning potential in a year? Not football's Tim Beckman (at $1.8 million the highest-paid UI employee of them all) or men's basketball's John Groce.
