Maybe one is Trey Walker. Either good for the dudes for having a great meal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ND is notorious for not being a high paying gig given the prestige of the job. DM is not just our RB coach, he’s an Associate HC…doubt ND is offering that or beating his current salary.

ND was letting Kelly seek compensation elsewhere so I know he was getting paid a large sum from Under Armor I believe. I’m sure there were incentives not listed here for making bowl games/playoffs etc. but that’s the only figure released. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have better figures I’m all “ears”. Aside from that, RB coaches don’t get massive incentive bonuses. The RB coach at ND is simply not a higher paying opportunity than AHC/RB’s at IU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimsorgi Posted January 31, 2022 Report Share Posted January 31, 2022 All the first article tells you is how much ND characterized as base salary for Kelly, and the second article tells you even less. The fact that Kelly’s salary at LSU is $400k should tell you how valuable that information is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there’s something in his contract that says officially the base is $400k and the rest of the guaranteed comp is labeled something else for $9.1M then it’s semantics. Look, if you have actual info contrary to what I posted, please share. Otherwise I’m not interested in debating this with you. The fact that the ND job is relatively low paying has been discussed on PTI and coaching carousel discussions for a very long time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His base salary is $400k. They rest of it is supplemental income in exchange for media events, name/image/likeness, etc. The point is that universities often characterize coaching salaries in different ways and the fact that a tax filing said Kelly’s salary at ND was $2m means nothing.

The fact that the ND job is relatively low paying has been discussed on PTI and coaching carousel discussions for a very long time. Of course it’s semantics. Same as anything that says Kelly's salary at ND was $2m. That’s the whole point. “Kelly’s full salary at Notre Dame, a private school, was unknown but was believed to be more than $5 million per year.” https://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/college/ct-brian-kelly-notre-dame-lsu-20211130-g76kaisw5fb75ayxvo4dydcimi-story.html?outputType=amp ND is extremely tight-lipped about the finances of its athletic department but that number is more consistent with what I know from people in and around the university (not that anyone told me an exact number - but a general range).
