Arizona basketball: Archie Miller to earn higher salary than Sean Miller at Indiana
According to the Indy Star, Archie’s contract at IU, which runs through March 2024, is worth up to $24 million and will pay him an average of $3.35 million per year and could pass the $4 million mark after incentives.
Sean’s contract at Arizona, which was extended in February, currently pays him about $2.6 million and is set to increase to at least $2.9 million by 2020.
In total, Archie is the eighth-highest paid coach in college basketball among those that reached the NCAA Tournament last year, per USA Today.
While Sean is the highest paid public employee in the state of Arizona, it’s clear that he could make more money elsewhere, which is why some fear he could leave Tucson eventually.
However, Sean was not interested in the Ohio State job this offseason, and its new coach, Chris Holtmann, makes more than Sean now too, so money evidently isn’t his No. 1 priority.

2016 Arizona payed Miller 4.9 mill. Now money could be deferred in different ways because of taxes. Who knows how these contracts are setup
