With a 56% raise, Ute defensive coordinator Morgan Scalley joins Andy Ludwig among Pac-12’s highest-paid assistant coaches

In the process of landing Andy Ludwig as the football program’s offensive coordinator, the University of Utah has awarded defensive coordinator Morgan Scalley a matching salary.

Scalley received a 56% raise to $820,000 annually in the two-year contract he signed Feb. 1, three weeks after Ludwig’s arrival on campus, The Salt Lake Tribune has learned.

Utah typically doesn’t make any announcement about contract agreements for assistant coaches in any sport. In response to The Tribune’s open records request dated May 15, the university initially provided the two-year contract Scalley signed in 2018, worth $525,000 annually.
