Boeh may get a nice bonus
Here are some performance areas in which Fresno State athletic director Thomas Boeh apparently qualifies for a bonus this year.
* 3% of base salary if the baseball team competes in the NCAA College World Series.
The Bulldogs not only competed, they won it. Boeh’s original contract says nothing about a bigger bonus should Fresno State come home with the title.
* 3% of base salary if the women’s basketball team competes in the NCAA tournament.
Coach Adrian Wiggins’ team, after a 0-6 start, won 22 of its next 26 games to qualify for tournament — “The Dance” — for the first time in school history.
* 3% of base salary if the football team competes in a Western Athletic Conference-contracted bowl game.
Coach Pat Hill’s Bulldogs beat Georgia Tech 40-28 in the Roady’s Humanitarian Bowl, one of three-WAC-affiliated bowls.
* 3% of base salary if the year ends with no NCAA major allegations against Fresno State, and if the requirements of any NCAA sanctions are implemented and completed within the fiscal year.
Anyone hear of NCAA major allegations against Fresno State this year?

Remember this name: LORAS COLLEGE. That is where Thomas Boeh is from. He will stay at Fresno State until he is wooed by a Big Ten school -- or Notre Dame. Money will not persuade this guy.....Prestige will.....
First off, thank you, George, for doing such thorough reporting on Boeh's contract--on the day after a holiday, no less. Boeh's performance, like that of many others at Fresno State, receives far too little attention in the public's eye, both during the ups and during the downs in the lives of these public-figure administrators.
Your question about NCAA major allegations is an interesting one. Based on what you report here -- the clause that any sanctions be implemented and completed in the fiscal year -- Boeh would seem to be off the hook for AY 07-08 and would meet that bonus criterium. That's despite both the men's basketball team and the baseball team facing Academic Performance Rate scholarship reductions next year, based on the performance during the current school year.
A nice loophole? Looks like it.
