According to a USA Today article I read, Petrino's base was $417K in 2015 I believe, with $150K more possible in bonuses.John K wrote:Wow...that's a lot of dough for an FCS coach. I imagine Petrino will be at or near the top of the list once Idaho moves back into the FCS ranks.The Butcher wrote:I was curious about the highest paid coach in FCS and found this:Mr Lisle wrote: Baldwin salary at EWU was $222,000,
Turner Gill received a base salary of $658,492 and a total compensation package of $750,116 for the Liberty fiscal year ending June 30, 2015, according to tax documents retrieved online. Liberty’s 5th year head coach had the highest compensation package of any other FCS coach we researched. Gill’s compensation would put him 87th amongst all Division I coaches, including the FBS, according to a recent USA Today study.
He ranked 112th among FBS coaches. At $658k, Turner Gill would rank 90th on that list
Edit. Actually it's a 2016 list.
