Unveiled: The Shocking Truth Behind College Football’s Top-Paid Coach
7. Lincoln Riley, USC ($10,043,418)
Riley has been among the highest paid coaches in college sports since his time as the head coach of Oklahoma. He received a pay raise of an additional $2.5 million annually to join USC, showing the school’s confidence he will be able to bring the same level of success to Southern California.
T-8. Mike Norvell, Florida State ($10,000,000)
Norvell made headlines in December of 2024 by restructuring his contract to give up $4.5 million to help launch a fundraising campaign for Florida State’s NIL program. Norvell will have the chance to earn the money back with incentives throughout the remainder of his contract, but he may end up as the first of many coaches to make a similar move.
