What Are You Worth? Offensive and Defensive Line Coaches

AFM’s Exclusive 2005 Collegiate Salary Survey - Part II
© More from this issue

Click for Printer Friendly Version          

Across all levels of coaching probably the two most underrated position coaches are the Offensive Line Coach and the Defensive Line Coach. Not only underrated but almost under the radar. Yet, ironically, the argument can be made that the performance of the O and D lines determine, more often than not, the outcome of a game. The old cliché is true: ‘Football games are won and lost in the trenches.’

American Football Monthly continues its first annual college coaching salary survey this month with the salaries of these two position coaches: offensive and defensive line coaches. Salaries for all levels of college Offensive and Defensive Line Coaches are included as well as their other responsibilities and tenure as coaches.
