You can’t win a conference title or College Football Playoff national championship without money these days. Not only does it go to players through Name, Image and Likeness, but there’s also licensing, facilities, and more that gets stirred into the ingredients of winning at a big time college football program.

Part of that too is what kind of cash a program like the Ohio State football program throws at its coaching staff. Of course, we know that head coach Ryan Day earns a healthy sum in base salary, but the OSU program has also made it a point to lure and retain high-level assistant coaches.

But did you know what each assistant on staff at Ohio State makes? We’ll tell you it’s a handsome sum for all of them, and OSU is one most well compensated coaching staffs in the Big Ten, and entire country. So yeah, to much is given, much is expected — and that’s partly why coaching on the banks of the Olentangy is a pressure cooker and not for everyone.

USA TODAY has released its database of assistant coaching salaries and we’re here to let you know what each coach donning the Scarlet and Gray is making, ranked by total base revenue. Some of the figures may surprise you.
