Here's what I think we should do:
This MAY help us keep Diaz, who was really the heart and soul of this year's team.
I'm not even sure Tony Peterson is carrying all the offensive responsibility right now (with Holtz announcing that he is calling plays now), so total compensation of 275K for Petersen seems fair.
This is the price of winning: A
$505K increase for next year. Frankly, I think we're getting off cheap.
And between our bowl revenue, our increased rev from the TV contract, and our increased LTAC support, we should be able to support this increase. BTW, I would NOT give Holtz an increase this year, simply because I think
the market dictates that we don't have to.
