Mavric Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 NJ.com looked at the B1G coaches in cost per win. Probably more interesting at the end of they year but here's what they have so far this year. 1 - Kyle Flood, Rutgers, $190,000 per win 2 - Randy Edsall, Maryland, $333,333 3 - Jerry Kill, Minnesota, $350,000 4 - Gary Anderson, Wisconsin, $366,666 5 - Bo Pelini, Nebraska, $384,375 6 - Tim Beckman, Illinois, $400,000 6 - Kevin Wilson, Indiana, $400,000 8 - Mark Dantonio, Michigan State, $469,428 9 - Darrell Hazell, $583,333 10 - Urban Meyer, Ohio State, $651,142 11 - Kirk Ferentz, Iowa, $670,833 12 - Pat Fitzgerald, Northwestern, $733,333 13 - Brady Hoke, Michigan, $837,500 14 - James Frnaklin, Penn State, $1,000,000 2 Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted November 7, 2014 Author Share Posted November 7, 2014 And in a kind-of-related note: Joe Schad @schadjoe 45m45 minutes ago Bo Pelini of Nebraska is tied for 6th in total victories since 2008 @ESPNRobertSmith 2 Quote Link to comment
JJ Husker Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 At a cursory glance, it would appear the lower cost per win coaches are the lower paid and/or they are having better than usual seasons. On the higher end it is the opposite, higher paid coaches and/or worse seasons than gypical. Don't see any real shockers here. Quote Link to comment
huKSer Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 I thought Ferentz would be more costly - oh, wait, next year he will Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Pelini has the highest base salary in the B1G at $3,075,000. LINK Urban Meyer, who makes $4,558,000 per year in salary and incentives, only has a base salary of $808,000. The next highest base salary is Dantonio at $2,000,000 (out of $3,286,000 salary and incentives). I wonder why we structured Pelini's whole contract as base salary? Nobody else in the B1G did it that way. Quote Link to comment

HUSKERFOREVER38 Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Iowa coach is making a killing. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Iowa coach is making a killing. I've argued for years with Iowa fans that they're paying top coach money for a average football coach. He's average, vanilla and safe to a fault, and makes way too much money for what he's done. Fine by me, keep on keeping on Coach Ferentz. Quote Link to comment
nebraskan Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Here is a list of all current FBS coaches, ranked by cost per win. This chart was posted on Reddit a few days ago, which I assume is the inspiration for the article Mavric posted. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1EsgUMfZfOM8tOBNlvUmBCH03ECp0R4XM8zzyYZ3sOIA/edit#gid=0 Quote Link to comment
SouthAfricanHusker Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Pelini has the highest base salary in the B1G at $3,075,000. LINK Urban Meyer, who makes $4,558,000 per year in salary and incentives, only has a base salary of $808,000. The next highest base salary is Dantonio at $2,000,000 (out of $3,286,000 salary and incentives). I wonder why we structured Pelini's whole contract as base salary? Nobody else in the B1G did it that way. I'd like to see what incentives Urban has to go from 800k to 4.5M. Urban has no conference titles, no BCS bowl wins at OSU, etc. He has been very good but doesn't have the measurables typically required for incentives. That link is also a little confusing. It lists 2014 guaranteed money for Urban at 4.5M, but his base is 800k. If he is guaranteed the money is it really different than base? It appears like Bo's contract is more straightforward without knowing the details of the contracts. Quote Link to comment
SouthAfricanHusker Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Spent some time on the website and found the true incentives. It's all smoke and mirrors to imply that Urban is incentivised to perform better with his contract structure. Bo - INCENTIVES contractual raises: $100,000 raise each year, reaching $3,175,000 in 2015 conference regular season: $100,000 for winning division but not making conference title game OR $200,000 for making conference title game OR$350,000 for winning conference title game non bcs bowl bid: $150,000 bcs bowl appearance: $250,000 national championship bid: $350,000 national championship: $300,000 academic or off field incentives: if four-year average graduation rate is greater than or equal to the student body: $25,000 NCAA academic progress rate 930 or higher: $7,500940 or higher: $15,000950 or higher: $25,000 URBAN - INCENTIVES contractual raises: $108,000 in March 2013. additional guaranteed annual compensation: $1,850,000 per year for media$1,400,000 per year for Nike$10,000 from Coca-Cola$40,000 in retirement contribution. retention bonus: $450,000 on Jan. 31, 2014$750,000 on Jan. 31, 2016$1,200,000 on Jan. 31, 2018 conference regular season: $50,000 conference championship: $100,000 plus one-year extension bcs bowl appearance: $150,000 national championship bid: $250,000 academic or off field incentives: team GPA 3.0 or higher: $50,000, 3.3: $100,000, 3.5: $150,000 1 Quote Link to comment
