NORTH CAROLINA — As another weekend of college football has wrapped up and with college basketball season tipping off early next month, CBJ takes a look at the annual salaries paid to all of the coaches in the UNC System.
No. 1 is N.C. State head football coach Dave Doeren at $1.625 million.
However, these numbers only include what the university pays them. The total compensation for many coaches at the system’s biggest programs is likely much higher; often additional funds come from private sources.
For example, USA Today reports UNC head basketball coach Roy Williams has total annual compensation of $2,281,778 in 2019. However, in the UNC System database, Williams is the sixth-highest paid coach with a reported salary of $541,778.
Check out a countdown of the top 50 highest-paid coaches as well as a searchable database for all 554 coaches in the UNC payroll system.
