Assistant head coach and offensive coordinator Jeff Brohm was introduced Friday as WKU’s new football coach. While his contract has yet to be approved – it will be presented to the WKU Board of Regents on Jan. 24 for approval – many of the terms and conditions have already been agreed upon.

– The contract extends four years, from Jan. 10, 2014 to Dec. 31, 2017, with a fifth-year option.

– Brohm’s annual base salary will be $600,000.

– Brohm’s contract buyout will start at a larger figure than that of former coach Bobby Petrino (who owed WKU $1.2 million when he left for Louisville), but it decreases in cost every year. If the contract is terminated before March 1, 2015, WKU is owed $1.5 million. If it is terminated before Feb. 28, 2016, WKU is owed $1.2 million. If the contract is broken before Febr. 28, 2017, WKU will be paid $900,000, and if it’s terminated on or after March 1, 2017, WKU is owed $600,000.

Brohm also has several annual incentives that will allow him to earn extra money over the course of the contract.

– A BCS Bowl berth or College Football Playoff appearance will give Brohm $100,000.

– A winning percentage greater than .500 is worth $50,000.

– A win in a bowl game is worth $50,000.

– A Conference USA title is worth $50,000.

– An Academic Progress Rate of 950 is worth $50,000.

– An Academic Progress Rate of 970 is also worth $50,000.

– Public season ticket sales in excess of 12,000 a year will earn Brohm $25,000.

– A Conference USA Coach of the Year award is worth $25,000.
