in 1992, CJM made $300,000 a year, 6th highest paid in the SEC, behind Bill Curry at KY.
CPF will make $2.05 million in 06.

in 1989 Don Devoe made $72,000
CBP will make $1.1 million in 06

Pat Summit will make $1.125 million in 06.

TN is the only school in the country where the football coach, men's basketball coach and women's basket ball coach all make over $1 million a year.
:blink:
Is UT hiring?

amazing how much the pay total is going up on athletes and coaches. My HS football coach quit the NFL because he made more teaching and coaching then he did playing in the NFL

How much does the hockey coach get paid? Hiring?

Ummm, obviously UT is the only school like that since Pat is the only women's coach making that much.

Not to mention last year, UT was paying 3 men's head coaches salary; Green, Peterson, and Pearl.

Don't expect UT ticket prices to drop anytime soon.
