Show me the money!

Yesterday Ken Krayeske felt that Jim Calhoun's 1.6 mil salary was way out of line. And after researching what some D1 coaches make at other public universities, I agree that his salary is nuts. Dude deserves a fucking RAISE! Take a look at where he ranks and tell me otherwise. (Oh, and so we get all our facts right, here is an interactive map containing state budget deficits)

-Billy Donovan (Florida): 3.5 mil
-Bill Self (Kansas): 3 mil
-Thad Matta (Ohio State): 2.5 mil
-John Calipari (Memphis): 2.35 mil
-Billy Gillespie (Kentucky): 2.3 mil
-Bruce Pearl (Tennessee): 2.3 mil
-Rick Pitino (Louisville): 2.25 mil
-Roy Williams (North Carolina): 2.11 mil
-Rick Barnes (Texas): 2 mil
-Bob Huggins (West Virginia): 2 mil
-Ben Howland (UCLA): 1.97 mil
-Tubby Smith (Minnesota): 1.75 mil
-Tom Izzo (Michigan State): 1.7 mil
-Tom Crean (Indiana): 1.6+ mil
-Gary Williams (Maryland): 1.6 mil
