The Price You Pay.

by Kelly on November 19th, 2006

Following up on my recent post about the NCAA, college sports and tax-exempt status, take a look at  this tidbit in USA Today which reports college coach salaries.

I’ll bet Jim Tressel thinks his approximately $500k advantage over Lloyd Carr is worth it following this weekend’s Ohio State-Michigan game…  Of course, that begs the question, why is Oklahoma’s Bob Stoops picking up nearly $3.5 million per year when his team didn’t even crack the top ten?

It’s more than just curious fans checking out these numbers.  With 119 coaches averaging $950,000 per year - not including perks - you can bet IRS is taking a gander, too.
