CFB Salaries for Head Coaches & Asst Coaches

The highest-paid defensive backs coaches in college football: 2024 edition

ZACH BARNETT            10 HOURS AGO

Defensive backs coaches have more responsibility than ever, which means they're wearing more hats than they ever have and getting paid more than they ever have.

In an age where base defense places five defensive backs on the field, DBs have blitz, play the run and the pass, cover tight ends, backs, slots and wideouts -- sometimes all on the same play. 

As a result, it's now more common than not for FBS teams to employ two defensive backs coaches, and more common than not for one of those coaches to carry a title beyond cornerbacks and/or safeties coach. And they're paid accordingly.

At least 34 secondary coaches are earning north of half a million dollars a year, and most of those are a co-coordinator, a passing game coordinator, or an assistant head coach, if not a coordinator altogether.

As always, salaries are based on open records, media reports and, when applicable, the USA Today coaching salary database.

Gideon and Joseph's salaries need to be equal at $475,000. At least Gideon has been handicapped until this year. Joseph is a failure at best.

The highest-paid quarterbacks coaches in college football: 2024 edition

If nothing else, it's instructive to see just how many QB coaches are also coordinators, and just how few are not.

ZACH BARNETT           MAY 20, 2024

The goal of this exercise has always been to isolate, as best we can, the specific value of position coaching at the major college football level.

That task is most difficult at the quarterback position, because most at the position also coordinate or co-coordinate the offense.

As such, we've split this position into two groups. If nothing else, it's instructive to see just how many QB coaches are also coordinators, and just how few are not. 

Coordinators and Co-Coordinators

$2 million: Chip Kelly, Ohio State

$1.85 million: Andy Ludwig, Utah

$1.75 million: Garrett Riley, Clemson

$1.65 million: Charlie Weis, Jr., Ole Miss

$1.6 million: Andy Kotelnicki, Penn State

$1.5 million: Kirby Moore, Missouri; Bobby Petrino, Arkansas

$1.4 million: Mike Bobo, Georgia; Kirk Ciarrocca, Rutgers, $1.4 million; Will Stein, Oregon, $1.4 million

$1.3 million: Nick Sheridan, Alabama

$1.25 million: Bush Hamdan, Kentucky; Phil Longo, Wisconsin

$1.1 million: Tim Lester, Iowa; Chip Lindsey, North Carolina; Brian Lindgren, Michigan State; Seth Littrell, Oklahoma

$950,000: Kirk Campbell, Michigan; Graham Harrell, Purdue; Joe Sloan, LSU

$875,000: Tyler Bowen, Virginia Tech

$850,000: Zach Kittley, Texas Tech

$825,000: Barry Lunney, Jr., Illinois

$800,000: Mike Shanahan, Indiana; Pat Shurmur, Colorado; Glenn Thomas, Nebraska

$745,000: Ben Arbuckle, Washington State

$725,000: Ryan Gunderson, Oregon State

$700,000: Brian Brohm, Louisville; Brad Glenn, Cincinnati

$600,000: Greg Harbaugh, Jr., Minnesota

$500,000: Jim Zebrowski, Kansas

Missing: Marcus Arroyo, Arizona State; Dino Babers, Arizona; Chip Kelly, Ohio State; Collin Klein, Texas A&M; Matt Wells, Kansas State

Non-Coordinators

$633,000: Chris Weinke, Georgia Tech

$600,000: Darin Hinshaw, UCF*

$540,000: Tino Sunseri, Indiana+

$500,000: Tony Tokarz, Florida State

$450,000: Shawn Bell, Houston

$430,000: Kurt Roper, NC State

$425,000: AJ Milwee, Texas

$400,000: Kent Austin, Auburn; Tim Rattay, Oklahoma State

$260,000: Taylor Lamb, Virginia

$200,000: Tyler Allen, West Virginia

Missing: Matt Holecek, Mississippi State

* Hinshaw was hired as UCF's offensive coordinator ahead of the 2023 season. He was then demoted to co-coordinator upon Tim Harris, Jr.'s hiring in January. We haven't seen any word on a new salary for Hinshaw, so we're rolling with that figure for now. 

Missing: Jimmie Dougherty, Washington; Sterlin Gilbert, Cal; Jake Waters, Iowa State; Ted White, UCLA

The highest-paid linebackers coaches in college football: 2024 edition

With so many coordinators and co-coordinators, we've blown this position out to two sections.

ZACH BARNETT          3 HOURS AGO

Unlike the other positions, there don't seem to be "star" linebackers coaches. Don't get it twisted, I'm not saying there aren't great 'backers coaches. Of course there are.

What I mean is, there don't seem to be guys who become household names as career linebackers coaches, a Larry Johnson or a Tony Alford of the position. Like their counterparts on the other side of the ball -- quarterbacks -- LBs coaches quite often take on coordinator or co-coordinator roles on their path through the profession.

That's my observation, anyway. What say you?

The highest-paid tight ends coaches in college football: 2024 edition

I don't care what the market says, all these guys are underpaid.

ZACH BARNETT      MAY 24, 2024

Confession time: Tight end is my favorite position in football.  To me, they're the most "football" among all the football players. I fully realize the idiocy of that statement: by definition, every position in the game of football is a football player. But I love the versatility of the position. I love how tight ends do a little bit of both: one one play, they can block down on a tackle or kick out an end. The next, they could run a seam 40 yards down the field.

These human Swiss Army Knives are oftentimes the skeleton key to an entire offense. If the defense places a linebacker over the top of them, they'll pass; if it's a safety, they'll run. To me, the magic of football is when one can whittle this impossibly complex game down to a simple if-else concept, and that's what a good tight end allows his team to do.

In short, all these guys are underpaid.

The highest-paid strength coaches in college football: 2024 edition

ZACH BARNETT         JUN 4, 2024

We wrapped up our annual series examining assistant coaching salaries late last month, but by request are extending our survey to strength coaches. And, really, we probably should've been doing strength coaches all along.

It's often said that strength coaches are the most important people in the program outside the head coach, and it's easy to see why. Other than the head coach, no other position "touches" every single player on the roster like the strength coach -- even special teams coordinators don't really coach the starting quarterback. Strength coaches also work with the team near year-round, which means no one knows the ins and outs of all 100-plus players like the strength coach.

As this realization has settled over college football over the past decade-plus, strength coaches have risen in stature across the sport. For one, they're almost never titled "Strength and Conditioning Coach" anymore. It's most often "Head Coach for Strength and Conditioning," "Director of Strength and Conditioning," "Director of Athletic Performance," or something along those lines, in large part because they now head a whole department with a staff of four to five assistants and GAs below them. 

Here's a look at where the salary market for strength coaches -- ahem, head strength coaches -- stands, culled from open records, media reports and, when necessary, the USA Today salary database. 

$1 million: Rob Glass, Oklahoma State

$950,000: David Ballou, Alabama

Venables will earn an average of $8.6 million annually for the duration of the deal, including a salary of $8.15 million in 2024, which includes $600,000 toward retirement. Venables was set to enter the third year of his original fully guaranteed six-year, $43.5 million contract.

Oklahoma State awards extensions, raises to Mike Gundy's coaching staff

July 3rd, 2024

Overall, Oklahoma State will pay $14.65 million for Gundy and his senior staff, a 5 percent increase from 2023.  Gundy himself signed a rolling 5-year contract in 2022, which came with a $125,000 raise for 2024. 

Mike Gundy, once a man of 40, now enters his third decade as Oklahoma State's head coach. At age 56, the former OSU quarterback has spent all but five years of his adult life in Cowboy colors. 

Given that, it's no surprise Gundy has built a rare level of continuity among his staff. Nine of his 11 top assistants have been with the program at least five years, and Joe Bob Clements (co-DC/LBs), Tim Duffie (DPGC/CBs), Kasey Dunn (OC/WRs), Dan Hammerschmidt (S), and Jason McEndoo (TEs/FBs) have all spent at least a decade on Gundy's staff. Head strength coach Rob Glass rivals Gundy himself for longevity in Stillwater: after nine years at Oklahoma State and 10 at Florida, Glass returned to OSU alongside Gundy, and the pair now enter their 20th straight season together. 

On Wednesday, The Oklahoman reported Oklahoma State has awarded new 2-year contracts with raises for all nine of Gundy's returning assistants -- except for Glass, who signed a new 5-year deal paying him $1.1 million a year. 

The new deal allows Glass to extend his lead as the nation's highest-paid strength coach, a title he shared with Michigan's Ben Herbert in 2023, when both made $1 million. Herbert joined Jim Harbaugh with the Los Angeles Chargers.

On the field, every returning assistant received a raise of "at least" $25,000. Defensive line coach Paul Randolph, the one new assistant coach, signed a 2-year deal worth $475,000 per year, a sizable increase from the $350,000 Greg Richmond earned in 2023. 

Oklahoma State enters a new era of the Big 12 where the Cowboys will have as good a shot as anyone to win the conference. The Cowboys reached the conference championship a year ago, and return seventh-year quarterback Alan Bowman and the conference's top offensive player in running back Ollie Gordon II.

For starters, Kiffin's contract is with the Ole Miss Athletic Foundation and not the University of Mississippi, which allows Ole Miss to circumvent the Mississippi law preventing state institutions from awarding contracts longer than four years. This arrangement allows Ole Miss to have Kiffin under contract through Dec. 31, 2029. Ole Miss has a similar deal with men's basketball coach Chris Beard, and Mississippi State does the same with Jeff Lebby.

"As an institution that competes at the highest level of college athletics, it’s imperative that our coaching contracts are competitive with market standards, and with the current model, we have been able to effectively navigate the contractual process in our industry," an Ole Miss spokesperson told the paper.

Moving further, Ole Miss is far more committed to Kiffin than Kiffin is to Ole Miss. 

Should he leave for another job after this season, Kiffin would owe the OMAF a $4 million buyout, which decreases over the life of the deal to an eventual $1.5 million. But if Ole Miss were to fire Kiffin without cause, the OMAF would owe 80 percent of the remainder, which equates to $36.59 million if done after this season -- with no duty to mitigate. 

Kiffin's salary sits at $9 million per year over the life of the deal. He'll technically earn $8.85 million in salary in 2024 with a $150,000 retention bonus due on Dec. 31, 2024; the following day, his salary increases to $9 million from 2025 through '29.

Furthermore, Kiffin's contract automatically extends each year Ole Miss wins seven regular season games. The deal actually includes an automatic extension every year, per the Clarion-Ledger, but Kiffin and the OMAF have the mutual option to forgo the extension in the even the Rebels win six or fewer regular season games.

Either way, Ole Miss should be eager to extend Kiffin after this season, considering the Rebels set a program record with 11 regular-season wins in 2023 and enter this season ranked No. 6 in the AP poll, the program's highest starting point since 1970.

A new 6 year contract for Venebals after just one 10 win season before going to the SEC and their first schedule is aggy-levrl dumb. After 2 years of coaching they already extended the guy who didn't even win a conference title. Even we waited until Sark won a title before upping his salary. 

Jesus. They're even dumber than I thought. Is Bjork working for ou?

Details of Mike Norvell's contract extension released

Norvell will average around $2 million more per year than prior, set to hit 2024 at $10 million benchmark

ZACH BARNETT          4 HOURS AGO

How much was Florida State's undefeated regular season in 2023 worth to Mike Norvell? At least of $2 million a year.

After signing a 7-year extension that averaged $8.05 million a year last February, Norvell signed another extension that, we now know through documents released Monday, will start at $10,0 million in 2024 and rise by $150,000 per year.

The previous extension was set to pay Norvell $7.335 for the 2024 season.

Sources: Richmond hiring Harvard staffer, former All-Big Ten OL to offensive post

Announced Jan. 12, just before Alabama announced the hiring of Kalen DeBoer, Norvell is now under contract through 2031 (the previous deal expired after 2029) with his base salary breaking down as follows:

2024 -- $10.0 million
2025 -- $10.150 million
2026 -- $10.3 million
2027 -- $10.450 million
2028 -- $10.6 million
2029 -- $10.750 million
2030 -- $10.9 million
2031 -- $11.05 million

Norvell would owe $6 million if he left after 2024, and nothing if he left after 2030. Bonuses range from $950,000 for winning a national championship to $50,000 for a conference coach of the year award. 

 

Saban leaving Bama, helped Novell get a new $10mil+ contract per year thru 2031

Gap between first and second highest paid coach in college football at all-time high

There is a huge gap between top paid coach Kirby Smart and second-Dabo Swinney.

Doug Samuels        33 minutes ago

USA Today released their annual database of college football head coaches and their salaries today.  The list that had Nick Saban leading the way in compensation for years now has his top former pupil leading the way with Georgia's Kirby Smart.

While that will come as no surprise, the gap between Kirby and Clemon's Dabo Swinney, the second highest paid coach in college football, is a record since the salaries have been tracked.

Kirby's total pay is listed at $13,282,580 while Dabo is set to make $11,132,775.

Back in May Georgia announced an extension for Kirby Smart's contract aimed at keeping him in Athens through 2033. The new deal included a raise of more than $2.5 million, thus widening the gap between Smart and Dabo to about $2 million.

That gap is the largest it has been since Steve Berkowitz and USA Today began tracking salaries dating back to 2006.

Not surprisingly, the rest of the top ten is dominated by SEC coaches with six making up the top ten.

The Big Ten and ACC both check in with two on the list.

Other notable nuggets from the database:

• Marcus Freeman is set to make $6,687,754 at Notre Dame, a private school that normally doesn't have their salary information public.
• Highest paid Group of Five coach? USF's Alex Golesh at #63 ($2,503,099) and UTSA's Jeff Traylor isn't far behind at #64 ($2.5 million).
• Lowest reported salary belongs to Brian Bohannon at Kennesaw State ($376k).
• Salary info not available for Kevin Wilson (Tulsa), Manny Diaz (Duke), Bill O'Brien (Boston College), Kalani Sitake (BYU), Jon Sumrall (Tulane), Fran Brown (Syracuse), Troy Taylor (Stanford), David Braun (Northwestern) and Troy Calhoun (Air Force).

Curt Cignetti's contract at Indiana is heavy on incentives

Curt Cignetti's six-year deal with the Hoosiers has a few rather interesting incentives.

DOUG SAMUELS       5 HOURS AGO

There's good news and bad news for programs like Indiana football.  The bad news? The Hoosier's have played in just five bowl games dating back to 1995, and haven't won one since 1991.

The good news? There are programs like Kansas, Baylor, and New Mexico State who had been in a similar boat in recent years, and making a quality head coaching hire completely changed the trajectory of the entire program.

That's what Indiana is hoping they've done with the hire of Curt Cignetti.

Cignetti signed a six-year deal worth at least $27 million, according to details of the deal shared widely yesterday. 

He is set to make $4.25 million during the first year of his deal ($500k base salary + $3.5 million in annual outside, marketing, and promotional income, + $250k annual retention bonus), with that figure increasing $100k through the term of the contract.

That's a steep raise from what he earned at James Madison last season, which was $677,311. Also, Indiana has agreed to pay Cignetti's buyout of $1.2 million for leaving the Dukes.

Cignetti can earn an automatic 1-year extension for leading the Hoosiers to any bowl game, and that would come with a $250k raise that would be permanently added to his compensation as well. A postseason appearance would also trigger $500k going into his staff pool allotted for assistant coaches.

Clearly, Indiana is hoping that Cingetti is the right man that will increase expectations around the program so making bowl games is an expectation, and not a contract incentive in future contracts.

The deal includes a number of other interesting incentives including:

• $50k for being named Big Ten Coach of the Year
• $100k for National Coach of the Year
• $100k for winning five Big Ten games
• $150k for winning six Big Ten games
• $250k for finishing among the top six in the Big Ten
• $500k for a second-place finish in the Big Ten
• $500k for appearing in the College Football Playoff
• $1 million for winning the Big Ten title
• $2 million for winning the national title
• $1 million for a national runner up finish
• $200k for reaching a bowl game (in addition to the $250k raise)
• $50k for winning the bowl game

If Indiana were to fire Cignetti before December 1, 2024 without cause, they would owe him $20 million. That figure decreases by $3 million each year on December 1st.

In the event that Cignetti were to resign before the end of his deal, he would owe Indiana $8 million before December 1, 2024, with that number decreasing by $2 million each year until the final two seasons of the contract, where it sits at $1 million.

 

I think Indiana got a bargain. I’ve known Curt since his days as Recruiting Coordinator at Pitt and he is good.

[Mittens 8643]

And Cignetti is a certified winner - that's why he's there.  At JMU he went 33-5 in FCS, losing in the Finals and Semifinals (2x), then 8-3 as a transitional team w/ 11 less scholarships than his opponents, and 11-1, winning the conference with no chance of postseason play.  They aren't rewriting his contract for doing his job, especially against a weak tit schedule.  He could get to 8 wins without beating a team over .500.

[boilerhorn 1605]

Cignetti just got a new 8-year contract, nearly doubling his salary.

https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/42423807/sources-curt-cignetti-gets-new-deal-indiana-10-0-start

Cignetti's new eight-year contract runs through the 2032 season and will pay him an average of $8 million per year with an annual $1 million retention bonus, putting the total value of the new contract at $72 million.

Cignetti originally received a six-year, $27 million contract when he was hired in December. He took the Indiana job after leading James Madison to an 11-1 season in 2023 -- when he made $677,311 -- with the goal of changing the Hoosiers' historically woeful image in football.

[LTtxfan 49914]

So Cignetti doubles his compensation from approx $4mill to $8mill -- good for him!!!

IU is also in the planning and financing stages of a substantial Memorial Stadium renovation, one Cignetti can now help shape.

https://www.indystar.com/story/sports/college/indiana/2024/11/13/iu-football-moves-forward-significant-memorial-stadium-renovations-plans-funding-indiana-hoosiers/76265714007/

 

Officially, Cignetti will sign a new contract lasting eight years and worth an average annual compensation of $8 million. He will also receive an annual $1 million retention bonus. A breakdown of Cignetti’s year-by-year compensation was not immediately available.

The contract will run through Nov. 30, 2032. IndyStar understands Cignetti is still in line to receive the bonuses earned from this season’s performance, add-ons which already total $600,000 and could improve further.

GJ Kinne agrees to new contract Texas State, per report

The deal marks Kinne's second raise within the past 12 months.

Zach Barnett      17 hours ago

GJ Kinne has agreed to a new contract to remain at Texas State, ESPN's Pete Thamel reported Thursday.

 

The extension keeps Kinne under contract for seven years and averages $2 million over the life of the deal, according to the report.

This is the second alteration to Kinne's deal in 11 months. In December, Kinne agreed to a 5-year extension that averaged $1 million per year. This deal will double his average pay.

Kinne, who did not enter coaching until 2017, is in his second season at Texas State. After going 8-5 with the program's first ever bowl win last season, the Bobcats are 6-4 and sit a game out of first place in the Sun Belt West with two games remaining.

UNLV hands Dan Mullen a Mountain West-record contract

Zach Barnett     18 hours ago

Mullen will earn double what UNLV paid Barry Odom this season.

Dan Mullen will earn $3.5 million per year on a 5-year pact as UNLV's new head coach, documents obtained by KSNV show.

The salary doubles the $1.75 million UNLV paid Barry Odom in 2024 and nearly doubles the $1.8 million that Colorado State paid Jay Norvell, a conference record. Mullen will also earn $1 million more than the highest-paid American head coaches, South Florida's Alex Golesh and UTSA's Jeff Traylor. He will out-earn Georgia Tech's Brent Key, UCLA's DeShaun Foster, Arizona's Brent Brennan, and Vanderbilt's Clark Lea -- at least one coach from every Power 4 conference. 

Mullen was not in coaching before taking the UNLV job. 

All told, UNLV paid Odom and his on-field coaching staff just north of $4.5 million in 2024, according to USA Today. 

Mullen will owe UNLV a $7 million buyout if he takes a Power 4 or NFL job before Dec. 1, 2025, and $5 million if he takes a non-Power 4 job. Each figure drops by $1 million per year.

Should UNLV fire Mullen without cause at any point before Dec. 31, 2029, the school owes him 80 percent of his remaining contract. 

Mullen would collect $600,000 in retention bonuses should he remain in Vegas through the life of the deal, starting with a $100,000 bonus on Jan. 15, 2027. He also got a $35,000 signing bonus. On-field bonuses range from $25,000 for reaching the Mountain West championship to $100,000 for reaching the College Football Playoff championship.

South Carolina issues new contracts, raises to Shane Beamer's coaching staff

Zach Barnett      3 hours ago

The Gamecocks allocated more than $2 million in raises to Shane Beamer's coaching staff on Tuesday.

South Carolina did not make the College Football Playoff, but the Gamecocks finished the regular season 9-3 and earned coveted "Team no one would want to play in an even larger Playoff" status, which is pretty good in its own right. A win over No. 20 Illinois in the Citrus Bowl gives the 14th-ranked Gamecocks 10 victories for the first time since 2013. 

Long story short: It was a good season for South Carolina, and now Shane Beamer's staff is reaping the benefits. 

As reported by Gamecock Scoop (no relation) on Tuesday, South Carolina's Board of Trustees approved a 3-year contract for offensive coordinator Mike Shula and across-the-board raises and extensions for the nine remaining assistants. 

Every South Carolina assistant is now under contract through at least the 2026 season, and all 10 now earn north of half a million dollars per year.

Shula's 3-year deal starts at $1.1 million per year, while defensive coordinator Clayton White netted a 3-year extension that boosted his salary to $1.9 million. He is now under contract through 2028, and will make $2 million in 2025 and $2.1 million from 2026-28. 

While White got the biggest raise in real dollars, offensive line coach Lonnie Teasley netted the biggest relative raise. His salary boosted by 65 percent, from $410,000 to $675,000, while five more position coaches earned raises ranging from "big" to "massive."

All told, South Carolina will pay Beamer's staff 31 percent more in 2025 than it did in 2024. 

* - Salary earned by previous staff member.
