Brot, DePaul's previous coach, Oliver Purnell, made $2.2 million a year. Part of the reason they lose so much money on athletics.
For perspective, that's about twice as much as Wichita State's Gregg Marshall, and almost three times the second highest coach in the MVC, Bradley's Geno Ford. It's more than the entire men's basketball budgets of about 200 D-1 programs, including Missouri State, Indiana State, and Southern Illinois.
Speaking of Bradley, they just got a new Athletic Director, Chris Reynolds, who played at Indiana under Bobby Knight.
