Koenning, who previously spent two seasons with WVU head coach Neal Brown at Troy calling the defense, had two years remaining on his contract valued at $1,074,059.

To settle that financial obligation, the report shares that WVU has committed to pay Koenning $24,663.26 every two weeks from August 1 - January 31, 2021 and then $9,672.46 every two weeks from February 1, 2021 - through when his contract was set to end on February 28, 2022.

The article states that WVU owes Koenning that money regardless of how much he makes with a future employer, and the school will not mitigate the amount it owes Koenning and also will not place any parameters on where he can work in the future.
