This is good advice in general, but in my situation I had to be a little more straight forward about it since the other company is only a couple miles away from where I currently work, and I knew I'd probably meet some of them again at different functions.

I know a handful of 3A schools in the area are 5-6k for head coaches. Football/Basketball will usually be a little more in most places but I know at least 2 head 3A bball coaches around here that are under 6k. Regardless you're really going to be busting your hump to make 22k in the summer on top of all the offseason stuff for your program if you're a head coach.
ha, yeah "I'm just not comfortable with the location". Sees old potential boss at a lunch place.
Awwwwwkward.
Take it. You're young, single and have no kids. That's great money for just out of college and you'll see a different part of the country. There are worse places to live than the state of Washington.
Some of you severely underestimate what teachers at big districts make late in their career.
Why are you immediately jumping to reneging?
You have an offer in hand, with a timeline. Continue to apply to other jobs, network, go to career fair etc. If some other interviews come in, ask for an extension from the original company. This is much better than just accepting at the 30 day deadline, then interviewing with others, and possibly reneging. If you need another 30 days, ask for it, and ask for it sooner rather than later. To be super specific, ask for another month at least a week before your deadline is up.
(Although I have taken both my original offers out of undergrad/mba, I have had extensions on both, and seriously considered alternatives before choosing)
To clarify why I said what I did, reneging does make the university look bad. While not as big of a deal at state schools, and for undergrad, it still leaves a bad taste in recruiters mouths, and can definitely impact future recruiting at ISU. This is especially true if they are not hiring very many students per year from ISU, which I assume is the case based on salary and location.
Lastly, I work for a company based in Seattle, so now I want to know who it is..

There were about 80 ISU students (interns and full timers) recruited and accepted for jobs. I don't think they are gonna stop any time soon. It is a big one. Hope that helps.
What is 2015's major? I feel like I know everything about his life getting through school and finding a job, yet so cryptic.
They don't recruit here I am pretty sure. Though I do have an interview because my friend works for them in Dallas now and he hooked me up
What was your original major? I've thought a lot about getting my mba soon as I'm ready for a change.
Hm. I just have never seen them at the career fair. That was why I assumed they didn't recruit here. But that is good news if they do then.
Maybe they don't go to the Business Career fair then? I thought LAS and Business were combined though.
Other interview I have lined up. But alas. No. Bigger than both of those combined I think (for jobs, not revenue)
