This is where all the biggest chunk of money in college sports is going - paying coaches and athletic administrators.
DoBO's are essentially aspiring coaches. They handle a lot of the day to day things in the basketball office. They work with the school's business office and equipment room for trips to road games and ordering and managing their equipment. They also typically run all the summer camps that the school hosts. Depending on the school, they may also be the liaison to the academic side of things for the athletes. That is why some schools will even have assistant DoBO's now. Typically the DoBO also oversee's the student managers and the GA's. They are a very important part of the coaching staff. While they don't get paid what the assistant's do, the average DoBO makes 50-60K.
