Notre Dame's highest paid coach
Notre Dame's reigning salary champ this year is:
The university paid Weis, who was fired as coach at Kansas last September, $2,054,744, according to figures included in Notre Dame's most recent IRS documents for the fiscal year that ended June 30, 2014

While Charlie Weis doing this right now.... 
Just sayin'...
Guy hit ten guys in jail within a 2 minute window....alls Im sayin.
XOXO
As a school who's fired 2 coaches in the last 5 years I don't know if we should be throwing too many stones in our glass big house.
Michigan didn't/won't be paying anybody $18 million NOT to coach their team due to a very ill-advised contract extension. What ND did was the equivalent of asking a girl to marry you midway through the first time you're hooking up.
Not only did she say yes, you also had to end up divorcing the girl 2 years later without a pre-nup.
So she took half with her.
Should've got that insured, Geico for your money.
Well yeah but it's not like we overpaid...
crap
to his agent. . .
They make extra collections at the Basilica mass every Sunday to cover this.
I could not coach at ND way better than Charlie Weis.

Yes, but you have to first develop a decided schematic advantage.
It truly bottles the mind that they're still paying him so much.
Bottles ?
I guess good for him. I wish I failed up as many times as he did.
He DID have a decided schematic advantage afterall. This is one hell of a scheme.
His advantage came through in video games, too. No other coach could do this!

I just spent the last 10 minutes watching and re-watching this. Time well spent.
Charlie Weis looks like he was sawed in half and then put back together backwards.
Ass in the front
I used to think Charlie Weis was an smug, incompetent idiot. Now he looks like a genius. He's got two schools paying him to sit on his ass and do nothing.
Granted, his reputation as a football coach is now deplorable at best, but the kind of money he's getting paid from both Notre Dame and Kansas allows you to not have to care all that much about what other people think about your reputation.

Some of this might be NSFW for you guys still at work, so you've been warned. Brady Hoke battling Charlie Weis is funny.

Lord knows theres plenty of them around. But the way this guys is such and asshat about it is what grinds me. You hear him interviewed you'd think he was the greatest coach ever. I know most coaches are arrogant, but at least have something(anything) to back that up. This guys a tremendous joke, albeit a really rich one.
People talk about "the system" in various places around football and it means different things to different people. Weis, on the other hand, through the process of building a name, getting hired, getting an extension, taking a team to a new low, getting fired, laying low and then repeating everything elsewhere, has earned the right perhaps to have what he does termed "The System". One day, I can only hope to be that good at getting paid to fail in most things that matter in a given field.
FYI Kelly is currently making $4Mill per. Adding to it that the AD at time was Kevin White. Swarbrick would have told him to hit the bricks.
really is Wise spelled sideways
Remember, Charlie bullied ND into that extension. Right after the USC game he almost won, the rumors started flying that "NFL teams" were very interested.
ND took the bait when it could have said, "If you don't want to be here, see ya." But that is pretty slimy to leverage yourself right in the middle of your first season. Hey, it worked.
I saw the title of this thread and said to myself before clicking on it, "Oh, I hope it's Charlie Weis" and sure enough, it's Charlie Weis!
Had me a chuckle. Miss ya, big guy.
Couldn't have happened to a nicer school.
