Former Syracuse football running backs coach Mike Hart received “an enormous raise” to leave the Orange to take the same position at Indiana, Syracuse coach Dino Babers told the media on Tuesday.
“I don’t want to get into his personal business, but it was a very big financial raise,” Babers said.
Former Indiana running backs coach Deland McCullough earned more than $158,000 last season. Syracuse does not release assistant coaches earnings.
Hart, a Syracuse native who set several Onondaga Central High School records before going on to star at Michigan, spent just one year coaching at Syracuse before deciding to leave for Indiana.
