Aloha Bowl coaches face career choices
Mason and Donahue have more to gain than postseason win

They might be playing for promotions
Kansas football coach Glen Mason and UCLA football coach Terry Donahue might be playing for more than a victory in the Jeep-Eagle Aloha Bowl.
Although neither side is talking, Mason's name has come up concerning the vacant head coach position at Rutgers University.
Rutgers coach Doug Graber had two years left on his contract when he was terminated this week.
"The search is moving along," said Pete Kowalski, director of sports-media relations at Rutgers. "We don't identify a list of candidates. We never do."
Kowalski wouldn't comment about Mason's status in the search. He said the school was being patient while looking to fill the position.
Mason, who is from New Jersey, wasn't eager to talk about the job. either.
"I don't have time for speculation, rumors and that stuff," he said. "I'm not going to get involved with anybody that just wants to talk with me about, 'Am I interested?' That's a waste of
time."
What would it take to get the coach's attention?
"Cash," he said. "We're talking cash."
Mason is scheduled to make $101,920 this year at Kansas.
Graber, who had a 29-36-1 record in his six-year tenure, received national attention because of his verbal exchange with Penn State football coach Joe Paterno about the Nittany Lions running up the score on Rutgers this season. Rutgers was 4-7 this year.
Donahue, who is in his 20th season at UCLA, also has been giving mixed signals concerning his future.
The coach, who reportedly has considered quitting after this season, told the Los Angeles Times that he would tell potential recruits, "When you choose a school, you choose a university. Sometimes coaches come, and (sometimes) coaches stay."
Donahue's status could be a problem if he has not made a decision by the letter-of-intent signing period this spring, he said.
One report has Donahue becoming a commentator for one of the national networks.
Mason, whose team has exceeded expectations this year,has come full circle.
"At the beginning of the year they're talking about you getting fired, now they're talking about you getting a new job," Mason said. "It's a joke."
