I am not a big fan of discussing other peoples money, but I think that this is pretty important.
Over at ASeaofRed (Liberty Flames Forum) they have compiled a list of FCS coaching salaries for the 2014-15 year.
Richmond - $437,672
Northern Iowa - $350,000
Villanova - $304,642
James Madison - $300,000
Illinois State - $300,000
North Carolina A&T - $285,000
Samford - $274,665
North Dakota State - $261,177
Sam Houston State - $250,000
Youngstown State - $213,894
Cal Poly - $205,200
New Hampshire - $200,000
South Dakota State - $190,000
Jacksonville State - $181,000
Eastern Washington - $212,717
Coastal Carolina - $175,000
Montana - $175,000
The Citadel - $175,000
Chattanooga - $150,000
North Dakota - $150,000
Charleston Southern - $120,542
Not an extensive list, but the trend should be clear: You see any consistent top 10 programs paying less than $200,000?
I write all of this based on Haslam's comments according to Amie Just on Twitter: "You can't have boosters paying the salaries of head coaches.... The salary here has done pretty well over the years."
I remember a discussion on this forum about Royce Engstrom a few years back and a poster said "You get what you pay for," and that certainly applies to the future head coach of the Montana Grizzlies.
