Coaching Salaries

[Hockeybuckeye]

Who can tell me what D-1 head coaches make each year around the country? I'm really interested how broad the spectrum is.

Re: Coaching Salaries

UConn 80K... I know this because I looked it up.

I believe Lowell is about 170K and UMass is about 190K... both are public record and searchable.

Re: Coaching Salaries

Toot Cahoon from Umass makes $220,875.00

Blaise MacDonald from UML makes $170,000.00

disgrace that the better coach and recruiter makes 50K less a year.

Re: Coaching Salaries

I've been really curious about this too and would like to see the broad range of salaries.

Re: Coaching Salaries

I just looked real quick and found that Rico made $140,000 in 2008 at Miami. Don't know if it has changed since then.

I know that John Markell at Ohio State was at $227,500 in 2008. Keep em coming guys, tapping the knowledge out there saves a lot of online research.

These guys all make a lot more when you throw in camp income and other ancillary money. Gwozdecky's base is between $200 and $250, and total income is well at least $300K when you figure in the other stuff.

I hope he has a lot of bonus clauses as with what he's accomplished there the man is grossly underpaid in his base earnings, at least compared to others making a whole lot more while producing less.

Hence why any "major coaching" openings make Miami fans somewhat nervous. I don't know what the price is to pull a coach away from his alma matter but there are some schools with coaching issues out there that might take a stab at guessing it. At the same time you would hope that after last season that number has gone up somewhat. I don't think he is going anywhere tho.

I would be shocked if Enrico ever left Miami, especially if the program continues as a contender for the NC. Miami has everything a coach needs except maybe a upper echelon salary...which I would bet Miami would sweeten his deal if necessary to keep him.

Re: Coaching Salaries

Not many people will know unless the schools released it in a press release or they are on the inside as all 12 ECAC schools are private institutions.

State schools have to give that information out, hence what you will see in that WCHA post. 8 of the 10 schools had salaries given. MTU was the only private school in that league to post information. DU and CC did not give their info.

Re: Coaching Salaries

I know salaries have risen over the years but does anyone have a guess what Mason was making ay Michigan State prior moving up to AD?

Now correct me if I'm wrong that any and every school that accepts federal money is subject to freedom of information statutes so submitting the proper paperwork can get one that info.

Michigan Tech is not a private university, hence why it is reported as required.

My mistake. I always thought it was a private school because it had tech in the name. Just more to make my point that private schools don't have to publish, hence CC and DU being the only schools not shown in the WCHA for coaches salaries.

Michigan Tech is not a private school, the students and alum just act like it is.
