College football coaches are currently making more money than they did five years ago. College football has recently signed multibillion dollar television contracts and the coaches are seeking the benefits. Players are not allowed to be paid in college sports. Players are only attracted to schools based on coaches, reputations, and facilities. A single coach such as Nick Saban at Alabama can completely transform a football program. A better football program sells more tickets and jerseys and brings it a bigger total revenue. The chancellor at Alabama said, "Coach Nick Saban is one of the best investments The University of Alabama has ever made." Not all college football coaches are worth the millions of dollars they make, but many of them certainly deserve every penny.
