Josh Pastner making more than Boeheim.....

 

[Red_Chaos]

how is coach K even worth that much ...

 

[CatsTopPac]

He's making more than Miller, too. Am I missing the part where Boeheim is even on this list? You forgot him, didn't ya??

 

[The Derski]

According to various sources Boheim is making less than 2 million. $1,818,661 to be exact. Really surprised by this.

tenure in the league... numerous Championships, numerous ACC Titles...Shall I go on?

But yes, that salary is very high... Wish I could make that much!

 

[gordontrue]

Fort the coaches at big time programs you can add a bunch more money for shoe contracts, endorsements, commercials, etc.

Bill Self coming in at 4, nice!

 

[Shanemansj13]

Calipari turned down 10 yr $80 million from the Cavs. That's $2.5 mil/year more. Wtf, Calipari??

 

[Wild Turkey]

how is coach K even worth that much ...

He isn't no way to justify that amount it would be a stretch to give Saban that kind of money and we are talking football money with a monster fan base.

 

[Wild Turkey]

Izzo is the best money on that list to do what he has done at Michigan State is remarkable maybe best bang for the buck in all of sports.

 

[The Derski]

Izzo is the best money on that list to do what he has done at Michigan State is remarkable maybe best bang for the buck in all of sports.

Agreed. If Izzo could recruit like Coach K he would be unstoppable.
