There's big bucks in sports. In fact, the highest-paid coach in all of U.S. sports makes a whopping $20 million annually.
Of course, the players can make more than the coaches in NFL football, but either way you look at it, there's a lot of money going around.
Now, Sportico.com has released a list of the highest-paid coaches in U.S. sports, including pro and college. The No. 1 highest-paid is Bill Belichick of the New England Patriots at $20 million for an average annual salary. That's incredible. No. 2 is Pete Carroll of the Seattle Seahawks at $15 million for an average annual salary.
Continuing down this list, many of the names are NFL coaches, which is on big surprise. No. 3 is Sean McVay of the Los Angeles Rams at $14 million. At 36, McVay was the youngest Super Bowl-winning coach ever when the Rams beat the Cincinnati Bengals earlier this year. The first NBA name on the tally comes in at No. 4 with Gregg Popovich of the San Antonio Spurs at $13 million. Sportico.com notes, "Only Belichick has been coaching longer than Pop, who has spent 27 years among coaches in the major U.S. sports leagues, and the duo has won a combined 11 titles. The 73-year-old is in the final year of his current contract, which is tops in the NBA."
Two Pennsylvania names appear on this list. One is Doc Rivers of the Philadelphia 76ers at $9 million. Sportico.com states, "The NBA’s 75-year anniversary project included selecting the 15 greatest coaches. Rivers was one of four active coaches to make the cut, along with Popovich, Kerr and Erik Spoelstra. They are also the four highest-paid coaches in the sport."
The other is Mike Tomlin of the Pittsburgh Steelers at $12.5 million. Sportico.com explains, "One of the most impressive streaks in coaching history is in jeopardy in 2022, as the Steelers are likely headed for a losing record for the first time in Tomlin’s 16 seasons at the helm. His current three-year extension runs through the 2024 season." Find the full tally here.
Housing costs are coming down a bit, largely because interest rates have been on the rise all year, but it's still a pretty expensive time to purchase a home. If you're looking to purchase a house, as it turns out, one Pennsylvania city has been ranked among the hottest housing markets in the U.S. The reason they're so hot, according to the report, is because they are more affordable than many other areas of the country.
Realitor.com has put together a list of the 20 hottest housing markets in America, based on the latest housing report. The study notes that the latest tally of the hottest housing markets are largely also very affordable markets, which is why they are so popular. "Pricey western markets have been replaced with more affordable markets in the Northeast and Midwest, which account for 17 of the 20 hot markets," the report states. "Overall, 16 of August’s hottest markets had median listing prices below the national median. The average listing price for the 20 hottest markets was $332,000 in August, 23.6% lower than the national median, the biggest gap between the metrics since August 2021. Overall, 13 states were represented on our list of top 20 hottest housing markets in August as buyers spread out to find affordable metro areas."
They also add that cost wise, prices are finally falling a little bit. Chances are, they'll fall more in the coming months. "The median national home price for active listings has finally showed signs of slowing, falling to $435,000 in August, up 14.3% year-on-year," the study states.
The states featured in Realtor.com's top 20 list this month are Connecticut, Indiana, Massachusetts, Maine, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, New York, New Hampshire, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Tennessee and Wisconsin.
