What I suggested wasn't a lump sum bonus (I have no idea why you think I said this), it was a raise, which is why he would keep it in year 3 of his contract, regardless of next season's outcome.  And this raise in no way restricts other raises or contract renegotiations in the future.  The people arguing against a raise say it's not time for a contract extension, and I agree with that.  That's why I suggested a raise while maintaining the existing contract length.  The option to lock him down long term with a more significant pay raise still exists next year.  You seem to suggest it has to be all or nothing.  Leave things exactly as they are or lock him in with a much larger raise in pay ($500,000/yr?) with a contract extension.  All of that is fine, and the most likely scenario is one where nothing is done now and any changes would occur after next year.

Again, if you read my previous posts, I'm suggesting a raise (not a bonus) now.  If we continue on an up trend, a contract extension following next season with a more significant raise.
