But for those that were hesitant about the salary we are giving Arnett, just know that Auburn is now paying Kevin Steele $2.5 million per year.
Like I said, I know the situations and coaches are different, but the landscape of assistant coaching is changing. We are paying what it costs to elevate the floor of our program. Can't pay coordinators less than a million anymore if you want to get some solid ones.
The going rate is just getting higher and higher and we have to keep raising the floor. By comparison, Sark was the highest paid OC in the country last year at $1.5 million. So the DC market is a little different than the OC market
