because it's harder to find a coach that wins games (brings 💰💰💰) than a good governor?
Alabama football revenue was $104 million in 2016. Coach Saban made $7 million, so who is complaining?

Actually, IMHO, it should depend on the coach and depend on the governor. I'd love it if citizens got to suggest salaries for politicians.

I would be in support of a law stipulating that the highest paid state employee would be the governor. If the Prima Donna coaches and athletic directors do not like it then they can go get a real job.
