Ordering SUNY coaches by their salaries (public information via seethroughny.net - not leaking anything sensitive over here). Who do you think deserves to be higher/lower? Someone should rank them by coaching ability as a reply!
For transparency I am an alum of two of these programs (undergrad + 1 year of eligibility for a master's). So I do know a few of these coaches personally. I know there are a few SUNYs missing and I know all of the JUCOs in NY are SUNY - I just couldn't track down their salary info.
My initial takeaways:
* Only two women on the list feels crazy - Vicki being paid significantly less than the other D1 SUNYs and Meg being almost the lowest paid
* Not a massive correlation between pay and relative success
* I hope ESF and Potsdam aren't asking those coaches to be full-time
