Jim Larranaga. As he goes into his 12th season of coaching for Mason's Men's Basketball team, Larranaga has led these men to the 05-06 NCAA Final Four which awarded him with numerous coaching awards, the first round of the NCAA tourny in the 07-08 season and the first round of the NIT tourny in 08-09. No wonder why his salary is more than the President of the University, Alan Merten.
Wait... is that right? The head coach of George Mason University makes more money than the University President? Better believe in ladies and gentlemen. According to the Connect2Mason website, in June of 2009 an article was released showing the top salaries for each George Mason employee. Here is how the list went:
1. Jim Larranaga: $525,000 Head Men's Basketball Coach
2. Alan Merten: $404,000 University President
3. Peter Stearns: $340,000 Provost
4. Lloyd Griffiths: $328,296 Dean of the School of Information Technology
5 Maurice Scherrens: $273,000 Senior Vice President
this just proves, Jim Larranaga, YOU ARE THE MAN!
