A lot of coaches around $2.5 Mil per year with Howland being 50th highest paid coach at $2.2 Mil. Only Bryce Drew at $2.047 Mil is lower than Howland. After this year I imagine he gets bumped up since the average SEC salary looks like around $2.5M.
He made $50k more @ UCLA in 2013
Would you rather pay taxes in California in 2013 or Mississippi in 2019?Quote:

$2.2M is pretty good money. It's ridiculous that a basketball coach gets paid that much.
No more so than what is being paid to football coaches. And some baseball coaches.Quote:

Not really when you factor in there's only 4 total salary basketball coaches on staff, the Hump seats 10k+ plus and every game is on national TV. Howland makes more than his salary here as well. Adidas is definitely throwing him some cookies too.Quote:

Howland is coaching effort and execution a lot more than it appears I think. Sometimes it takes awhile for it to sink in when you haven't been getting good coaching your entire playing careers until now.Quote:

There will come a time when we need to raise it. When that time comes, raise it.
You the resident Kermit Davis fan now? We are about to be a 6th seed in the NCAA tourney just 4 years since Rick Ray got fired. That's actually a small miracle if you really think about it. Wanting better than that quicker than that is just unrealistic and we don't have some crazy storied history as a dominant basketball program to expect it to happen faster and better.Quote:

It was raised this year from previous season. Probably be bumped again, especially post-sweet 16. ;-)
