Colorado State releases details of Mike Bobo’s contract; includes substantial incentives

Nearly eight months after agreeing to become Colorado State’s head football coach, Mike Bobo officially signed his contract Thursday, therefore releasing it to be seen by the public.

As was reported in December, when he agreed to the contract, Bobo’s deal pays him $1.35 million in 2015, with a $100,000 raise each year after until the end of the contract in 2019. Bobo also received a pro-rated amount during the eight days in 2014 he was employed by CSU after agreeing to the deal Dec. 23.

Bobo, who replaces former coach Jim McElwain, has a laundry list of incentives that were not listed in McElwain’s contract, though all are contingent on the CSU football program meeting or exceeding the Academic Progress Report (APR) cutoff of 930.
