Dodge's UNT deal worth $265K

03:22 AM CST on Thursday, December 14, 2006

By BRETT VITO / Denton Record-Chronicle

DENTON – Todd Dodge signed a five-year contract with North Texas on Tuesday that includes a base salary of $185,000 and incentives that could push his annual compensation past $265,000.

The Southlake Carroll coach was introduced Tuesday as the Mean Green's 16th coach. The deal, which begins Dec. 26, runs through the 2011 season.

Dodge will take over at UNT after he finishes the Carroll season. The Dragons face Allen in the Class 5A Division I semifinals on Saturday at Texas Stadium.

Dodge's salary for the 2005-06 school year at Carroll was $90,101.

At UNT, Dodge will receive a $30,000 radio stipend, a $25,000 payment for maintaining membership in the NCAA and the Sun Belt Conference and a $20,000 bonus for completing each season.

Dodge also will receive a $6,000 car allowance.

The contract also includes a bonus for the number of season tickets UNT sells. Dodge will receive $5,000 if the school sells between 5,000-7,499 season tickets. The total doubles if it sells 7,500. An additional $10,000 would be added if UNT sells 10,000 tickets.

Dodge would also receive $25,000 for winning the Sun Belt title and playing in a bowl game.

The contract includes a clause that would protect UNT if Dodge were hired away by another program. Dodge would have to pay UNT an amount equal to one year's base salary if he leaves before the end of the contract on Aug. 31, 2012.

Former UNT head coach Darrell Dickey who was fired Nov. 8 was paid a base salary of $187,425 plus incentives last season.

      Javion was my pick as well followed closely by Mitchel, just to see what he could accomplish under a good coach.

      A-Scott Projected to OU

      St. Johns is one of the great sleeping giant jobs in the nation. They have a fantastic basketball history (they haven't been that great for the last generation or so, but the Johnies do have a helluva tradition) going back about 80 years and they play in NYC at MSG.

      Recent Past With all the excitement over Tylor Perry we quickly forgot about the best player from our recent past. The stats and awards bear it out. In my mind the answer is Javion Hamlet. No other player has accomplished what he has. https://meangreensports.com/sports/mens-basketball/roster/javion-hamlet/4731 Imagine what he would have accomplished if the 2020 NCAA Tournament had not been cancelled. We won the Conference in 2020 and arguably that was the best team we have ever had.

      Judge orders Florida State, ACC to mediation to settle suit

      A majority of schools could just vote to dissolve the ACC. There would be a court fight, but eventually schools that want out will be released with some greatly reduced financial penalty. It's like a divorce, you can't keep someone in an unhappy relationship, even with a contract. It will happen probably before the end of next year at the pace things are moving.
