Jim Boeheim Made $2.14M During Final Four Year of 2013

Syracuse University's federal 990 form from 2013 has made its way public and, shock of shocks, Syracuse Orange head coach Jim Boeheim was the school's highest-paid employee.

Boeheim received $2.14M in total compensation that year (up slightly from $2.13M the year prior), which includes a $301,431 base salary, $204,506 from his Big Orange Basketball Camp and $1.2M from IMG. That's how his compensation has been doled out for a long time and whether you take his base salary or his overall compensation, he's still a bargain compared to most coaches on his level. And even below his level.

In fact, Boeheim was the 23rd-highest paid coach that year according to public records. Cincinnati's Mick Cronin, Arkansas's Mike Anderson and Purdue's Matt Painter bilk their schools for more.

Next up on the school's highest-paid employees was, naturally, Scott Shafer. Shafer earned $1.3M in total compensation in his first year at the helm. The Orange went 7-6 and won the Texas Bowl that season, so, fair enough.

Following the two big coaches were then-Chancellor Nancy Cantor $(1M+), then-Athletic Director DOCTOR Daryl Gross ($848,662) and chief financial officer Lou Marcoccia ($743,071).

Syracuse WLAX coach Gary Gait received $716,409 in total compensation. I'll let you digest that for a moment. (NOTE: This is actually his 2012 salary, so it's unclear exactly what he made in 2013).

Boeheim also received a performance bonus of $210,000 (following a Final Four run) while Gross received one just shy of that at $203,333. See, all that Olympic sport success paid off...for DOC.
