I suspect there are a lot of other coaches at public universities that make enough to be on this list but are not.
I am not surprised. Saban earns every penny of it.
The $11M is no real loss for the University of Alabama which generates about $100M in revenues from its football program. The Alabama football program is not only self-funded but it brings additional revenue to the university - about $16M profit. It’s a business.
Let me know when they get to my name.
“Americans love a winner and will not tolerate a loser. Americans play to win all the time.

The very thought of losing is hateful to Americans.

Applies also to sports teams, from the NFL all the way down to pee-wee football. There are very coaches that can take their teams to the heights that sports fans demand. Right or wrong, that’s the way it is.
Not a single calculus teacher on the list.
Who does number 2 work for.
But is Nick Saban ever happy?
Coach Ratface at Dook makes about as much as Saban. Don’t know why his salary is not listed. He’s the highest paid basketball coach in the country.
Jimbo Fisher at TA&M is 70 million over 10 years, so whoever researched this article did a lousy job.
Sabin needs to ask for raise. That’s it? Really, I thought he made much more than that. Alabama Football brings in a ton of money. Roll Tide.
Hillary Clinton got hundreds of Millions of $’s to the Clinton Foundation when she was SoS. The rest of these people are pikers compared to her.
Give them their bread and circuses...
Many of those colleges have professors which advocate at least some aspects of socialism. Yet the big universities are downright capitalist when it comes to paying head coaches and football coordinators. They know the better head coaches bring in more ticket sales and sales of team clothing and other paraphernalia. Also, if the head coaches don’t win enough games and they’re fired without cause, they get either the full base salary for the remainder of their contracts or at least buyout payments that are agreed upon in their contracts. Most small college head coaches at the NCAA Division III or NAIA level get paid less than $100,000 a year due to less revenue produced.
