Schlossnagle one of the highest-paid coaches in college baseball, tax documents show | Fort Worth Star-Telegram

Gary Patterson might command the top salary of any employee at TCU, but head baseball coach Jim Schlossnagle is one of the highest paid college baseball coaches in the country.

Schlossnagle earned $1,109,521 million in 2016, according to the university's Form 990 obtained by the Star-Telegram through an Open Records Request.

That amount put Schlossnagle just short of the highest-paid coach in the sport at that time. That same year, Florida's Kevin O'Sullivan received a contract extension that included a reported annual salary of $1.25 million.

This is new territory for Schlossnagle, who, just a few years ago, wasn't making half of what he is now.
