Will Muschamp hired as Auburn"s defensive coordinator

Will Muschamp, who was fired as Florida’s coach last month, will remain in the SEC as Auburn’s new defensive coordinator.

"He’s one of the best in the business, if not the best in the business," Auburn coach Gus Malzahn said of Muschamp at Saturday’s introductory news conference.

Muschamp’s last official day at Florida was Nov. 29, when he coached the Gators in their loss to Florida State, which means he spent less than two weeks out of work. Numerous reports indicate his salary will be $1.6 million, meaning he will be the highest-paid assistant in college football. He reportedly also was a candidate for the Houston head-coaching job.

"We’ve been pretty good where we’ve been, but we’ve also had a bunch of good players," Muschamp said Saturday of the defenses he has coordinated.

Nick Saban"s house paid for by Alabama booster foundation

In spades.

Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban will make $6.9 million in base pay this year, the most successful training contract in the school game. But not long after he won his third national tournament for the Crimson Tide in January 2013, the Crimson Tide Foundation bought Saban’s Tuscaloosa house for approximately $3.1 million.

And did not ask for the keys.

Texas ADVERTISING: Longhorns establish to cover stipend of $10,000 per sportsman

Texas football players might soon find themselves with a somewhat thicker wallet.

No, not thanks to Longhorns supporters, but as the school could be establish to supply a significant stipend in addition to what it is that they receive now.

Athletic director Steve Patterson, speaking in a forum in Washington D.C. on faculty sports, said the school is set to spend almost $6 million a year for a cost of attendance stipend for each student athlete and to comply with the recent O’Bannon opinion that’s still making its way through the court system.

That breaks down to about $10,000 per player at the school across all sports, nearly the maximum possible new rules would permit.
