LSU makes Billy Glasscock one of highest-paid GMs in college football, other moves (LSU Football)

LSU has signed general manager Billy Glasscock to a 3-year, $3 million deal, according to documents obtained by The Advocate

The deal represents a massive raise from the reported $625,000 Glasscock earned in the same role on Lane Kiffin's Ole Miss staff, and a sizable bump from the $800,000 that Austin Thomas made on Brian Kelly's LSU staff. Thomas has now taken the general manager position on Pete Golding's Ole Miss staff; one wonders if they simply just swapped homes.

With that deal in place, here is the running list of highest-paid general managers in college football:

-- Michael Lombardi, North Carolina: $1.5 million
-- Vince Marrow, Louisville: $1.2 million
-- Billy Glasscock, LSU: $1 million
-- Chad Bowden, USC: $1 million range (per sources)
-- Mark Pantoni, Ohio State: $900,000
-- Marshall Malchow, Oregon: $900,000
-- Courtney Morgan, Alabama: $875,000

Elsewhere, defensive line coach Sterling Lucas, controversially hired away from South Carolina, signed a 2-year deal at $925,000 in 2026 and $975,000 in 2027, and special teams coordinator Joe Houston signed a 2-year contract worth $700,000 a year, per the paper.
