USF worked fast to hire new head coach Billy Mohl and through a Freedom of Information Act request, we have obtained the contract details for the new coach. (We requested the contract of former head coach Mark Kingston so we could compare them, but we haven’t received that from USF yet.)
For a first-time coach, this is a very favorable contract for Mohl. He will make more in his first year than Kingston did during his first season in 2015... although to be fair, the program is much better shape than the one Kingston inherited.
Mohl will make $150,000 in base pay during the 2018 season, with an annual $5,000 raise each year of the deal, topping out at $170,000 in 2022.
