NIL money

Wait...he got a pay raise?
In his original contract amendment that extended him through 2027, it only outlined his guaranteed compensation through June 2025. The amendment explicitly states that the university and Burman would work to sign an additional amendment in the future that would outline his guaranteed compensation from July 2025 through the end of his contract in 2027. That additional amendment, which I do not believe has been reported on, may have increased his guaranteed compensation. This would be pretty easy to get through an open records request from the university.

That original contract amendment also outlined deferred compensation that Burman would receive if he hit a certain amount of performance metrics. Not sure how much that women’s soccer championship counted for, but this may also be playing a role in his higher salary for 2026.
 
This is interesting:
Athletic Director - $851,412
yep, that's what it is now. Go to intercollegiate athletics directors office:


$851,412 for absolute abysmal programs. No wonder they took the $6 million out of the budget. Why is he making that much money? Who is signing off on this? They should be fired immediately.

At this point fans and cowboy joe club members should stop sending money in, stop attending games as a protest. Just to let UW know they don't support it.

Makes total sense the legislature would deny a funding request. I feel for the business council and Wyoming Public Radio. But UW asking for more money with this type of salary for these type of results JAC should tell him no. Somebody needs to.

The Boise AD makes 465k and has a 54k housing allowance. Burman is probably the highest paid AD in the MW/PAC now

I would like to know their why behind denying some funding. Maybe they don't like the president and Burman so they are going to turn the screws on BoT to force their hands.

852k is so wild to me. The 300k should have gone to funding assistant coaches increases in other sports
