Dusty May: College Basketball’s Biggest Bargain

Dusty May’s $3.73 million salary makes him the most underpaid head coach in college basketball, despite guiding Michigan to a national championship and two Final Fours.

Dusty May’s total compensation of $3.73 million this season puts him at the top of the list of most underpaid coaches across the country. His record—124 wins, two 35‑win seasons, and a national title with Michigan—shows a return on investment unmatched by peers, even as interest from North Carolina looms and a pay raise is expected.
