Athletics pay (Schedule J)
Coaches and athletics administrators listed on the university's Schedule J, by year, in dollars as filed. Schedule J lists only employees above the IRS reporting threshold who are among the highest paid, so “not listed” does not mean unpaid. Totals include deferred and nontaxable items, so they can differ from contract figures.
