WCHA Coaches Salaries

Re: WCHA Coaches Salaries

Anyone know the range for assistants in the WCHA?
USCHO posters commonly cite $100,000+ being thrown around for the top assistants.

Guessing that Miller, Hill & Hastings would be the highest paid, in no particular order.

The 2nd assistants could be as low as $20,000 depending on the school, but that too is a wild guess.

I would be shocked if any 2nd assistant was making $20,000 even at the AHA schools. Who can live off of $20,000 now days. Hell I made a little more than that 13 years ago when I got out college and I could barely live. I would guess around $35,000 would be the lowest. In the WCHA I would guess the lowest 2nd assistants makes $50,000 or maybe just a tad less.

Good point & you are probably right, but there are hundreds of people who want these jobs. I was just guessing.

There are 12 coaches in the league who work for nothing. The unpaid volunteer assistants.
