When Gregg Marshall agreed to remain at Wichita State last week, CBS Sports' Gary Parrish reported he'd receive a new seven-year contract worth an average salary of $3.3 million per season -- already an eyebrow-raising figure that will place Marshall among the highest-paid coaches in college basketball.
But place that $3.3 million in the context of the Shockers' athletic budget and the Missouri Valley Conference as a whole, and forget "eyebrow-raising" -- it's enough to pop the eyes clear out of one's head. Per US Department of Education's figures, available here, Wichita State's reported total athletic expenses for 2013-2014 (the most recent available) were $21,842,821. Marshall's $3.3 million would have accounted for a whopping 15.11 percent of the Shockers' entire athletic budget.
