Hey everyone, it’s your boy back again with another deep dive into the stuff we all kind of wonder about but don’t always dig into. Today, I was just messing around, thinking about college football, and I got stuck on something. You know Kirby Smart, the head coach for the Georgia Bulldogs? Well, I started wondering, “How much is this guy making?” So, I did what any curious person would do – I hit the internet.
First thing I did was just a simple search, you know, typing in “Kirby Smart salary” to see what pops up. And let me tell you, the numbers started flying. It was kind of overwhelming at first, but I was determined to get to the bottom of it.
- I started digging through articles, forum posts, you name it.
- One of the first things I found was that he recently got a new contract extension from Georgia. This was huge news.
- I kept seeing this figure – $13 million a year. Can you believe that? $13 million! That’s insane.
Breaking It Down
So, $13 million a year is the big number, but I wanted to know more. What else is in this contract? Turns out, there’s more to it than just the yearly salary.
- There are bonuses, like if he makes it to the SEC championship game, he gets an extra $100,000.
- And if he wins it? That’s another $200,000.
- This new deal also ties him to Georgia through 2033, which is a long time. It means he’s not going anywhere anytime soon.
Then I got to thinking about his net worth. It’s not just about the salary, right? The guy’s got endorsements, media deals, and all that. I found an estimate that put his net worth around $50 million. $50 million! That’s a lot of money, even for a successful coach.
What It All Means
It’s pretty clear that Kirby Smart is a big deal in college football. These numbers don’t just show how much he’s valued, but also how much the game itself has grown. I mean, we’re talking about a coach making more than some pro athletes. It’s wild when you think about it.
So, that’s what I found out today. It started with a simple question and turned into a whole exploration of contracts, net worth, and the business of college football. It’s crazy how much there is to learn just by following your curiosity. Anyway, hope you found this interesting. Catch you in the next one!
