It was already known that Oklahoma paid a pretty penny to get Jim Nagy as its general manager this offseason, but considering it’s a relatively brand new position in college football, there was no way of knowing if the penny the Sooners paid was shinier than what other college football programs had to fork over for their GM. Now fans know how it compares, though.
USA Today on Thursday released its first database of salaries for general managers or employees with a similar front-office role throughout college football. According to USA Today, with his reported 2025-26 salary of $750,000, Nagy is the eighth-highest paid general manager in college football and third in the SEC.
