Steele, the former Alabama assistant hired earlier this month, will make $500,000 in base salary with a $500,000 media stipend. Former LSU defensive coordinator John Chavis, who left LSU for Texas A&M, made $1.312 million in his final season with the Tigers.
The contract includes a "Les Miles" clause, which states that if head coach Les Miles leaves, the contract ends six months later. Steele's buyout is set at $450,000. If Steele leaves for another SEC school he would owe 50 percent of the remaining value of the contract and 20 percent if he leaves for a non-conference school.
