This dude decided that is was more appealing to stay in Ames, Iowa, home of our very own @HawkBear, than to go to Detroit and $68 million. Wow. Says something about Detroit huh?

Lions are .500 against the bears the last 10 years!

Matt Campbell probably looks at Fitz at Northwestern and understands he has a lifetime gig, he/his family are going to be well taken care of education/medically forever--and like Fitz--watch him let rumors run during HC carousel season until his university chases him with a raise that he accepts.

Even with big money, he'd be the 11th (interims included) head coach in Detroit since 2000. Let the meatball Dan Campbell have at that...

Are Coaches Salaries guaranteed?

Yes

All of that for a guy 7 games over .500 for his career.

What a cringe comment by Dan... This dude is going to generate some great roast threads for the next couple of years.

I do not live in Ames nor am I fan of Iowa State. I am almost appalled at the accusation. I think Campbell is a good coach and will make the jump to the NFL some day.

Ames is good for one thing - crushing Natty lights as a college kid. Everything else totally sucks lol.

Yay! I'm an ISU alum and Matt Campbell has been a god send for ISU football. We're going to be one of the best teams in the country next year with Brock Purdy and Breece Hall both returning. That's unheard of for Iowa f'ing State.

You guys need Re'al Mitchell at qb.

I'm sure ISU is paying Matt Campbell just a tad over minimum wage... Can't see why he didn't jump at the chance.

Basically, turned down $6 mil per year for 8 years.

I mean, if the Lions hit me up, I'd be like, "Nah. I actually really enjoy working the fryers and cleaning shit off the walls in the bathroom. One day I'll be assistant manager..."
