In December 2021, Mario Cristobal was appointed as the head coach of the Miami Hurricanes football team, signing a 10-year, $80 million contract.
This contract positioned Cristobal among the highest-paid coaches in college football. As of October 2024, his annual salary was reported at $7,783,059, ranking him 16th nationally. However, recent reports indicate that Cristobal has renegotiated his contract, securing a substantial increase that makes him the highest-paid coach in NCAA history. Details of the new contract are yet to be fully disclosed, but sources suggest that the agreement includes significant salary enhancements and extended contract terms.
This development underscores the University of Miami’s commitment to building a competitive football program under Cristobal’s leadership. Further details are expected to be released in the coming days.
