WHO ARE THE HIGHEST PAID COLLEGE FOOTBALL COACHES...$$$$
From the outside looking in, your common sports spectator, with no previous knowledge of the inner workings of major college football would assume its a frivolous career. When we dive deeper it becomes more clear as to how important these positions seem to be for universities everywhere. Listed below are the top paid coaches from the 2016 season:
Jim Harbaugh, Michigan – $9.004 million
Nick Saban, Alabama – $6.94 million
Urban Meyer, Ohio State – $6.095 million
Bob Stoops, Oklahoma – $5.55 million
Jimbo Fisher, Florida State – $5.25 million
Are these coaches paid too much or is their success they bring to university worth the price tag?
