Some dude on Outside the Lines just said that through his sources, Pete Carroll makes 4.1 million a year. But I guess since they, like Notre Lame, don't have to publish that info. Though the media would say he's worth it, and we are still dumb for paying Nick Saban that.
 
I’m not sure about Pete Carroll but I think Charlie Weis now makes the exact same as Saban. ND exercised an option in his contract that gave him an automatic raise which I believe now pays him $4 mil per year.

Hmmm, let's see. That's about 1.33333 million per win. Not that the media would care anything about that. :roll:

so my understanding is they are private and don't have to share the whole thing, so he could already be the best paid coach for nothing...

We need to be careful around here about putting a price on wins. We canned a guy making 900K per year who won 6 games twice in four years and won 10 games once, to be replaced with a guy who won 6 games for $4 Million in his first year. We Bama fans DO live in glass houses! :D

I kept waiting to hear that number thrown out on the coverage of the Army AA game, but it never happened... hmmmmm.

With NBC covering it....go figure. Not like they are ND homers or anything like that.

HE MADE 3.5 MIL LAST YEAR!!!!!!!!!! :evil:

I think you and I are the only ones who realize that, Lenny. :roll:

Actually, I'm sure there are some more Bama fans out there who know that, but I would say we are in the minority.

Yeah, I know it gets bigger from year to year, but it's still annoying to hear 4 million all the time. If ESPN and others took 5 minutes, then they might get their stuff straight.

Yep. During the bowl games, the whole $$ for wins things really got old. It seemed like every color guy in every po-dunk bowl had the same joke when they really didn't even know what they were talking about.
 
Charlie Weis is a legend in his own mind.
Is the Governor of Alabama aware of this ESPN fast breaking story? I mean Terry still wants to be here in Tuscaloosa? Renegotiate the contract!
