UConn makes Ollie highest paid HC in AAC

Postby LA_Mustang » Mon May 19, 2014 7:24 pm

“@JonRothstein: Two years ago Kevin Ollie was an assistant coach at UConn. Now he's making 3 million a year and coming off a national title. Amazing.”

“@AdamZagoria: Kevin Ollie will be the highest-paid coach in the @American_MBB now at $3M per year. Memphis' Josh Pastner makes $2.65.”

I can only imagine the bump Larry will get if he gets us a National Championship.

That figure included signing bonus. His base is below that figure.

In an interview this week, Turner said some of Brown's first-year pay also was in the form of a bonus, or what Turner termed "one-year support," which means Brown's recurring yearly pay is lower than the $2.8 million annualized amount.

Ollie may be the highest paid HC, but no program can rival the pay of our entire BB staff.
