In light of the complaints over UConn's home schedule this year I thought this was interesting. Doesn't the AD have control over the schedule? I didn't think it was solely the coach's decision.

Archie Miller will receive a $125,000 bonus each time his non-league schedule does not include more than one opponent who finished the previous season with an RPI above 300, the Indianapolis Star reported Tuesday after obtaining a copy of the newly hired Indiana coach’s contract. Miller agreed to a seven-year contract in April that will pay him at least $24 million.

The purpose of the non-conference scheduling clause in Miller’s contract is to appease Indiana ticket holders who were dissatisfied with the quality of the home slate in November and December the past few years.

Um, not very ambitious.

More than one above 300?

They could schedule Sacred Heart and Incarnate Word and fulfill the criteria.
