Wojo's salary hasn't been made public. I would guess he'd be on the list if it was.

None of the other Big East schools are public either. Wojo’s base pay is $1.673M with $140K in bonuses.

IF these numbers are accurate (big IF) I worry about the Big East long term.

We’ve been hearing that since the formation of the new BE. The BE is just fine.

Have coaches' salaries gone up a lot in the last few years? I was thinking Crean was making top 5-10 money with about $1.5 million in his last year or two at MU. Am I off on that?

I remember looking for this a while ago and could't find anything. Where'd you get that number?

Jay looks underpaid relative to some of the guys above him.

I remember that Buzz had multiple sources of income ... he had his Team Buzz thing and others.

I'm wondering if this is a private school thing.  Maybe Wright has other sources of income that does not qualify for this list.

Otherwise, you are correct, he does seem relatively underpaid.

Wow, I guess against all odds (given how high his pay is) Ohio State has gotten a good return on Holtmann's first year.

If these numbers are accurate, how did Mack turn Ohio State down?
You actually have a degree from Marquette?

Quote from: muguru
No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.

Because he knew he had a potential final four team, coaching at his alma mater.  Don't see him going anywhere for quite some time.  Maybe if the NBA comes calling, but he's made it clear he at his dream job.
I'll stick with my opinion on Gold.  He'll be in foul trouble within the first eight minutes.

Only 76 coaches in Division I are paid? I think some of the coaches should be taking money from agents under the table.

GoFundMe for Wojo anyone?

This is the amount on the 990, Wojo has additional comp outside Marquette such as camps, radio show, etc..  My guess is he is at least in the top 50.

Does anyone else find Chris Holtmann's pay offensive given the other names at the top of that list?

So his salary, according to that incomplete list, is somewhere around 50.  So the ROI isn't that far off.

It's what they had to pay him to get him to move down a level or two.
I would take the Rick SLU program right now.

USA Today has historically had weak editorial standards. So not necessarily a complete and comprehensive report. Although in general gives a good idea of what is going on.
