Would you believe me if I told you that Jeff Capel was the most expensive coach in the Big 12 conference in the 2009-2010 basketball season? Probably not, most everyone would say that would be Bill Self and the majority of the time they would be correct. But in this situation, I decided to look at each schools amount of wins last season and see what it cost each school in comparison to the salary of their head coach. The results are interesting especially seeing who got the best bargains, so to speak, last season.
Jeff Capel, Oklahoma Sooners, $1.5 million
2009-2010 Record 13-18 - Cost per Win: $115,384
Bill Self, Kansas Jayhawks, $3 million
2009-2010 Record 33-3 - Cost per Win: $90,909
Rick Barnes, Texas Longhorns, $2 million
2009-2010 Record 24-10 - Cost per Win: $83,333
Travis Ford, Oklahoma St. Cowboys, $1.8 million
2009-2010 Record 22-11 - Cost per Win: $81,818
Mike Anderson, Missouri Tigers, $1.55 million
2009-2010 Record 23-11 - Cost per Win: $67,391
Pat Knight, Texas Tech Red Raiders, $1.2 million
2009-2010 Record 19-16 - Cost per Win: $63,157
Greg McDermott, Iowa State Cyclones, $950,000
2009-2010 Record 15-17 - Cost per Win: $63,333
Doc Sadler, Nebraska Cornhuskers, $829,000
2009-2010 Record 15-18 - Cost per Win: $55,266
Jeff Bzdelik, Colorado Buffaloes, $750,000
2009-2010 Record 15-16 - Cost per Win: $50,000
Mark Turgeon, Texas A&M Aggies, $1.2 million
2009-2010 Record 24-10 - Cost per Win: $50,000
Scott Drew, Baylor Bears, $900,000
2009-2010 Record 28-8 - Cost per Win: $32,142
Frank Martin, Kansas St. Wildcats, $760,000

"was" not "is"
He signed a new contract at the end of last year, so he’ll be making about $1.5 million this year. Of course even if he drops back to ~25 wins he’ll still only be in Doc Sadler, Jeff Bzdelik, Greg McDermott territory. Which is still pretty reasonable.
