2018 USA Today Assistant Salary Database

Today the USA Today Assistant Salary Database came out. Some overall observations: the ACC is at a major disadvantage to other P5 conferences in terms of money. Only 2 assistant makes more than a million while 19 other assistants make more than 1 million. Tech's total assistant pay is 3,685,000 which is around 30th in the nation * that's with Wake, ND, Syracuse, Stanford, Pitt, NW, Miami, Duke and PSU not reporting .

When people talk about hiring bigger named coaches or splash hires this is one of the reasons it doesn't happen.

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:
β€œI served in the United States Navy"
