Gamecocks Football: Assistant Pay Breakdown

Head Coach Steve Spurrier was not the only one shown a little extra pay for helping to usher in a SEC Eastern Divison crown. Spurrier had his contract adjusted which made for a good week for him on a personal level.  Spurrier’s contract still runs through the 2013 season, but he is now set to make a guaranteed $2.8 million in 2011, $2.88 million in 2012 and $2.95 million in 2013.

Below is the breakdown of the assistant’s salaries for the 2011 season.  Due note that all assistants got a pay increase except Coach Johnson but he is already making 700k so I am sure he is not complaining:

  • Ellis Johnson – $700,000
  • Lorenzo Ward – $280,000
  • Brad Lawing – $250,000
  • Steve Spurrier Jr. – $225,000
  • Shawn Elliott – $185,000
  • John Butler – $185,000
  • G.A. Mangus – $175,000
  • Jay Graham – $175,000
  • Jeep Hunter – $170,000
