Okay, so I was super curious about how much money Rick Pitino makes, you know, the basketball coach? I mean, the guy’s a legend, so he’s gotta be raking it in, right?
First, I started digging around online. I just typed “Rick Pitino salary” into the search bar.
I found some stuff, not a ton, but enough to get me started. It looks like he’s doing pretty well for himself.
Digging into the Details
I read one article that talked about his net worth. Turns out it’s up around $45 million, so he is rich.
Then, and this is where it got interesting, I saw a report that said when he went to St. John’s, he signed a six-year deal. That contract was supposedly worth around $20 million!
- I’m no math whiz, I grabbed my phone and use the calculator app.
- I divided that $20 million by six.
- That means that Pitino is probably making about $3.3 million every single year.
Not too bad.
So yeah, that’s what I found out about Rick Pitino’s salary. It’s a lot, It seems like he earned it.
