I really really doubt this is about salary.

Agree because
A) I don't see Marrone as the interview for leverage type.
B) I don't see the NFL as being leverage for college guys salary increases. You can play other Universities, but playing the NFL probably isn't that wise.
C) As you said earlier, he likely just negotiated a new contract, so why weren't his new salary demands already addressed?
His agent could just be spreading this stuff on his own, but doesn't seem like the way Marrone would want it to go.
I think he's a well known and well thought of coach in NFL circles, and his audition at SU didn't do anything to change that perception. So I think the interest is legit.
Good for him if he goes, he deserves it. Sucks for us, but colleges often lose good coaches, just the way it goes..
