Toledo’s athletic director says the school has offered coach Matt Campbell a contract that would make him the highest paid coach in the Mid-American Conference.
The offer comes as Campbell is being wooed by other schools. Multiple media reports have said Iowa State is targeting the 35-year-old coach. Campbell is 35-15 in four seasons with Toledo.
Athletic Director Mike O’Brien told The Associated Press in a text message Saturday there is an offer on the table to Campbell that would boost his current salary of $495,000 per year. O’Brien would not specify the amount of the offer.
Western Michigan coach P.J. Fleck’s salary is $800,000 this season, highest in the MAC, according to USA Today’s salary database.
Iowa State paid former coach Paul Rhoads, who was fired last week, $2.2 million this year.
