Did he have a buyout to get out of his contract with Maryland? If so, and Indiana covered it, that would be compensation imputed to him during that first year. From what I have heard, the issue was that he was headed into his last year of contract and went in to discuss an extension. MD didn’t want to do that yet as they still hadn’t made the tournament (one of the first few out that year I believe). Don’t think that sat well with him, Indiana came knocking, off he went. Makes sense to me. If they aren’t valuing your work/progress and someone else wants you, bye bye. At least that’s what I heard. Maybe Maryland's athletic department realized that they were never going to compete in the top half of the conference and didn't think it was worth dumping more money into a salary increase and extension. So they let him walk and promoted the assistant for less money (also no nationwide search, so saving money there).

Don’t have time to do the digging right now but I thought there were multiple posts earlier this year showing Aird’s salary at Indiana to be around 500K. if that’s the case which I doubt can we say buyers remorse? 🥴

They are some D1 WBB coaches who do very well. Plus most have 3 paid assistant coaches. Plus all the other support staff. More that WVB. WBB has had men's BB and gender equity to compare it to in terms of having higher salaries. WBB has not caught up in salaries. There's several D1 VB Coaches out there who are barely making a living wage. Those B1G salaries are actually much higher than I was expecting.

Nebraska: $675,000 Minnesota: $550,000 Illinois: $368,000 Wisconsin: $345,650Ohio State: $281,875Indiana: $246,237Purdue: $241,898Michigan State: $261,375 Rutgers: $180,000Michigan: $170,000 in 2020, but $191,000 in 2019 Iowa: $175,000 Maryland: $160,000I find the Michigan salary a bit shocking, given the success that the coaching staff has had historically. Leisa Rosen makes $85K as the assistant coach, so I've always looked at them as a package deal. They also run their own camps to supplement that. The program needs many things but one of them will be up the compensation for the next head coach after the Rosen's retire.

Cook is underpaid, BTW. Most women's VB coaches are. It's criminal how we don't support women's sports in this country. I don’t know what your basis is to say that. Underpaid relative to what?

Penn State salaries are not public record because it’s not technically a public state school and is categorized more as a “state-related” university. But I’ve heard Russ Rose makes very comparable numbers to John Cook. Not true

Wow. Hildebrand makes $175,000 as the assistant, the Michigan salary surprises me given that institution’s reputation. I think I read once that Cook has a hefty incentivized contract. Meaning yes his base is $675,000, but he def goes over $1 million with camps and the goals he achieves.
I could be off.

According to the Pennsylvania Department of Education: The term “state-related” applies to universities in Pennsylvania which are statutorily established as an instrumentality of the commonwealth and receive an annual appropriation. Universities are granted “state-related status” either through their initial charters or subsequent legislation. Each university is responsible for setting its own tuition, fees and related costs of attendance. Costs vary from institution to institution. Obviously most state schools give major discounts to in-state students but that isn’t necessarily the case for PSU. All of the “state schools” in Pennsylvania are DII PSAC schools (think: Gannon University, Slippery Rock University, West Chester University, etc.). Those are the school you’ll get the huge discounts from. Not sure why PA does it that way. to Temple and Lincoln are also state-related. Pitt is as well. They have a little more independence in governing too. Michigan has a bit of a different funding scheme too and as a result their tuition is higher than most. Cornell has programs that are "state school" because Cornell is the land grant school for NY. The state schools in PA are bad. Especially Slippery Rock. Anyway back to salaries ..how do these salaries compare to their WBB peers? I know for a couple, still lower, despite the VB program greater success.

Nebraska WBB coach makes about $50K less than Cook. I don’t see that changing, regardless of her success. Mainly because she got her raise when she won B1G coach of the year, and in combination, they gave him a raise as well. His contract expires in 2022, so he will be getting another raise I’m sure with this FF and optimism moving forward with the underclassmen success and incoming recruits.
