I thought PSU had deeper pockets than that.

it's not just about how much money they have. there is a general "scale" for asst coaches and throwing a huge raise at one guy could seriously throw this out of balance. so they have to consider that their OC might get pissed if he's making a huge amount less than the DC and they'll have to bump him up also.

back to the money PSU has. they have never shown the inclination to get into a huge "arms race" with coaches and facilities. they place a premium on their academics and probably, imo, want to keep what they consider a balance between sports and academics.

good for them. being honest, most of us put way too mkuch emphasis on college football.
