Stuhoo Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 Michigan Jim Harbaugh $9,004,000 + John Beilein $2,760,833 Ohio State Urban Meyer $6,500,000 + Thad Matta $ 3,400,000 Penn State James Franklin $4,500,000 + Pat Chambers $1,000,000 Iowa Kirk Ferentz $4,500,000 + Fran McCaffery $2,000,000 Michigan State Mark Dantonio $4,300,000 + Tom Izzo $3,525,359 Northwestern Pat Fitzgerald $3,350,638 + Chris Collins $1,400,000 Nebraska Mike Riley $2,800,000 + Tim Miles $1,650,000 Wisconsin Paul Chryst $2,700,000 + Greg Gard $638,500 Maryland DJ Durkin $2,412,000 + Mark Turgeon $2,360,121Indiana Tom Allen $2,000,000 + ??? Purdue Darrell Hazell $2,190,000 + Matt Painter $2,428,795 Rutgers Chris Ash $2,000,000 + Steve Pikell $1,600,000 Illinois Lovie Smith $1,809,179 + John Groce was $1,700,000, new guy should be at least $3,000,000 Minnesota Tracy Claeys $1,400,000 + Richard Pitino 1,200,000 Takeaways? If we spend about $5.5 to $6 million annually on a basketball coach, we would STILL be only fourth or fifth in the B1G on combined coach salary. If we spent $7.5 million annually on the new basketball coach, we'd still be third in conference!! The basketball program budget is set to be a serious beneficiary of the long-term Tom Allen deal. ccgeneral 1 Quote
drock161 Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 I noticed a two interesting things about this. First, Purdue is the only Big Ten school that pays their basketball coach more than the football coach (besides us).Second, Wisconsin pays nothing to Gard compared to all of the other coaches. Even Rutgers pays their guy more than double Gard's salary. And yet Wisconsin still get at least decent results. Quote
LIHoosier Posted March 17, 2017 Posted March 17, 2017 FYI, Brohm(Purdon't) is reported to have been given a 6 yr/$20 mn deal while PJ Fleck(Minnesota) is getting $3.5 mn next year. Quote
