New MSU women's basketball coach among highest-paid in country

Michigan State's Robyn Fralick will be among the highest-paid women's basketball coaches in the Big Ten.

Fralick, the Okemos native who was hired last month to succeed Suzy Merchant at Michigan State, will make at least $1 million a year over the lifetime of her six-year deal, according to contract details obtained by The News via a Freedom of Information Act request.

That's more than Merchant earned under her latest deal, signed before the start of this past season, which ended up being her last of 16 in East Lansing because of an undisclosed medical issue.
