The university is expected to wait until later this year to increase head coach Dabo Swinney’s annual compensation of $6 million.
How about the defensive coaches?
Tigers defensive coordinator Brent Venables was the second-highest-paid assistant in the Football Bowl Subdivision this past season with a $2.2 million salary, according to a database compiled by USA Today, giving the Tigers three assistants making more than $1 million.
Being a college coach can really pay the bills.
