The discussion of "pay" in and around the workplace is always a little "weird". So often it seems employees feel unable to ask for a raise yet there's always a competitiveness around making sure that your pay is even with your colleagues. Some workplaces publicize everyones pay, to be transparent. Others give everyone a raise together so that the bar is always even.

If you're a State of Idaho employee, however, you have no privacy. Anyone can lookup your pay rate--and so, out of curiosity--we did just that.

Over the last few weeks here in the State of Idaho, ONE employee has really stood out.

He has made national headlines, he's "saved" a whole lot, and he is no stranger to the State of Idaho, either.  In fact, he's kind of a big deal.

You guessed it, we're talking about Dirk Koetter

Things to Know About Boise State's Dirk Koetter

Boise State has a new Offensive Coordinator and he's no stranger to Boise. Here are a few things that you should know before Dirk Koetter takes over the offense this week!

So, what's this guy worth?

According to the State of Idaho's "Transparent Idaho" platform, he's only making $11.54 an hour.

We're talking about the guy that has turned around a Boise State offense during what is easily the most tumultuous season in memorable history.

Tell us that this website is wrong--please. Koetter has only been the Offensive Coordinator for a few days now, so perhaps the data just hasn't been updated. The site also shows that former Offensive Coordinator, Tim Plough, was making over $124.00 an hour.

Can fans expect Koetter to take on that salary? Remember--he claims he will only be doing this until the end of the season.
