Where you getting that Brian Kelly makes $4 million a year? The article says that he makes a little over 1.5 Mil.

His salary is low, but since ND is private, they don't have to disclose all his incentives. It's safe to say he makes for than his salary, but I would doubt he gets near $4M

Not to say that this is not true, but I wonder where they're getting their information from. I don't see this in line with other sources of information.

ESPN also reports about 1 1/2 million. And their federal tax return for 2012 reports it at one and a half-million.

Sounds low for a MNC game under his belt. He had to get a raise after that...almost positive. 2012 tax returns? What about 2013? and what's his 2014 salary?

Those links have his report 2014 salary at 1 1/2 million dollars but only the 2012 federal tax return can be corroborated as of yet. For whatever reason.

Muschamp was 32nd because when he was hired he was paid his perceived value. If he ever won anything he would have gotten a fat bump in pay (see Jimbo Fisher's raise). He definitely earned "the going rate"....but at a school like UF he could have made much more if he was worth a sh*t.

I imagine our next hire will be a PROVEN coach...so he will be paid accordingly. Muschamp simply was overpaid.

Anyone who thinks Brian Kelly is only making $1.5 million at ND is an idiot. Sorry, but it's true. As someone else mentioned, ND is a private school and does not disclose what they are paying...because they don't have to. My guess is he makes at least what a top SEC school would pay (other than Bama). It's probably north of $4 million.

ND has always paid poorly, relatively speaking. They also pay their professors and top admin staff poorly. Cheeseburger was the exception and he reinforced their belief that they shouldn't pay too much.

You might be right about the 1.5 number being old but I wouldn't be surprised if he isn't in the top 50.

50th is $2.25 mill...no way a title game coach is making that at ND with their own network. Sorry dudes. Makes zero sense.

They have to disclose it to the IRS. That one $1.5 million is directly from the IRS return from Notre Dame.

This site has different info. Ex: Brian Kelly @ 4 million per year.

This link was posted earlier. Why is this link being used as a source? This is a website from somebody in their mother's basement. You guys consider the source of this as more legit then USA Today, Forbes, and the actual IRS return?
