No kidding! Are they MAC Champs?


I didn't really think that Keith Dambrot made that much at Akron. I assumed it to be half that because I assumed he left to go to Duquesne at least partly for the bigger payday.

The quoted numbers include benefits and bonuses. I suspect his actual salary is closer to the ~600k number that was floating around on one of the other threads

Rest of Ohio college salaries --> $18,850,753


Average salary for men* --> $569,152
Average salary for women --> $285,732 (almost half)

*does not include Matta or Urban's heavily weighted salaries

Frank makes LESS than Chuck Martin??? You've got to be kidding me.

And to answer the question - Frank should make more. I love Saul, but he inherited a program that was arguably in decent shape, and has made modest improvements thus far (but I'm optimistic for the future). Frank built a contender from a program that was not even relevant.

If the NCAA mandated a salary cap of $250,000 for anyone and everyone, would any of the people listed stop being a coach?
Can somebody hit a pull up jumper for me?.....

The expectations for basketball/Saul are also significantly higher.
I've seen crazier things happen.

Are they? Frank can make it to the MACC and lose by 6 to the #18 team in the country and still get blasted for not doing a good enough job.

Meanwhile, Saul can make it to one post-season appearance in 3 years, and that's OK.

One of them is only .500 in conference play.
