I mean, I understand Kentucky, and Florida is a pretty good basketball program, but does Donovan really make more than Muschamp or Jimbo? I can't see how Florida State or Miami's BBall coach would make more than Donovan, so I guess it would have to be him.

Also, Lol at Conneticut's highest state employee being a women's basketball coach. New Hampshire is also the only state with the highest paid coach not being basketball or football.

To be honest though, this map makes me sad for America. We have what, 10 states where the highest paid state employee isn't in college athletics?

The only things missing from your post to make it the most 'Merican thing ever is a big tittied blonde riding a bald eagle while holding a shotgun and a Bud Light.

Thousands of people aren't paying lot's of money and networks aren't willing to shell out millions of dollars to watch a college professor or president do his job every week.

uh...yeah he makes more than Muschamp.

3rd in SEC wins behind Rupp and Dale Brown.

He made Florida basketball. 2 national titles, 3 FF's, 6 Elight 8's.

What has Muschamp done?

Perhaps all y'all broke-arse basketball programs should pay more.

Donovan at $3.5MM ties Spurrier who is the 3rd highest paid football coach in the SEC.

Maybe the rest of your cheapskates should try a little harder in hoops.

Is this supposed to be a flame?

Yes, Donovan is paid more than Muschamp, and deservedly so.

I support the Florida posters here. Donovan has 2 titles. Muschamp doesn't even have an SEC Title. Not saying Muschamp is a bad coach though.

Also UCONN's womens Basketball coach Geno Auriemma deserves it as well. If you don't believe that then you don't know sports.
