The deal will make Schlossnagle the highest paid coach in the SEC by a considerable amount, nearly $700,000.

Over the next two years, Schloss will be paid $1M annually by the Texas athletics department, before a $2.68M annual salary kicks in for the remaining five years of his seven year deal.

It is quite a bit!

I thought 10 yrs/$35 mill was reported at some point 

Is there money coming from another source too?

The 2.68m puts him at highest paid coach in the sport if I’m not mistaken. 

Interesting that he’s getting $1mm the first two years. Still paying Pierce?

Pierce and Aggie

2.2 Mill per.  Thought it'd be more as well even considering the sport
