Michigan assistant Chris Partridge, heavily pursued by other programs, including national champion Alabama, is getting a significant salary bump after deciding to stay with the Wolverines.
Partridge will make $500,000 each of the next two years according to a memorandum of understanding he signed Jan. 11. Also, Sherrone Moore, a new staff addition, has agreed to a two-year deal that will pay him $225,000 this season to coach tight ends and $250,000 next season.
The Detroit News obtained the documents on Monday through the Freedom of Information Act.
Partridge was making $350,000 a year coaching linebackers and special teams in a two-year deal that expired earlier this month.
