Salary Breakdown Sun Belt Coaches

Interesting post from the Sun Belt board.

This is one of those FYI type of stories - also shows that despite four straight Sun Belt titles, it is not North Texas who rewards their coaches with the highest compensation packages.

In the course of researching how the staff of the North Texas makes in comparison to the rest of the Sun Belt, the staff of the Denton Record Chronicle broke down all the major staff of each of the member schools of the entire Sun Belt Conference.

If you've ever wanted to know how much the LB coach for Troy or the O-Line coach for Louisiana-Lafayette makes in a year, well...here is your answer.

Wow? If that list is accurate, the FIU head coach makes more than Dickey in base salary..and insnt far behind Howard Schnellenberger at FAU. I would have started any Head coach at FIU in the mid 140's. Got a ways to go for that program to grow up, and 250K is a lot of money for several losing seasons.

Oh well, if they offerred...I'd take the money too.

GMG!!!

I'm sure the name recognition meant a lot to them wrt building the program and recruiting florida. Plus, both FIU and FAU are big schools with more money than the average SBC school.
