USA Today has released its annual report on coaching salaries, and here's how the Big 12 stacks up per year, from top to bottom.
Note: Some coaches' contracts have bonuses built in for reaching bowls, BCS bowls, winning their division or conference titles. Those are not included in these numbers, but the maximum bonuses are listed in the USA Today report.
Mack Brown, Texas: $5,161,500
Bob Stoops, Oklahoma: $4,375,000
Gary Pinkel, Missouri: $2,550,000
Turner Gill, Kansas: $2,101,200
Bo Pelini, Nebraska: $2,100,000

Dan Hawkins, Colorado: $1,391,903
Paul Rhoads, Iowa State: $1,051,145
Art Briles, Baylor: $878,315
And who doesn't like value buys, right? Certainly, some schools got more bang for their buck this season. Let's re-rank those coaches by how much they were paid per win this season.
