I don't know what you've been watching if you think Anthony Grant is an above-average coach. He isn't. I'm not OK with average. Bill Battle, shouldn't think we're ok with average.

I agree completely. At $1.8m we're certainly not paying him just an average salary, so we should expect above-average performance.

There were 43 coaches who took their team to the NCAA tournament last year and who make less than Anthony Grant: LINK Including Wichita State's coach (though, to be fair, he's very very close to Grant).

As an aside, holy crap at Coach K making over $9m a year. Insane, but clearly worth it.
