The average Power 5 AD earns just over $927,000 a year, according to a study released by Athletic Director U and USA Today.
The ACC leads the way at $1.137 million per year, while the Pac-12 pays its ADs the least among all Power 5 leagues at $755,120.
The study found that Texas Tech's Kirby Hocutt was the highest-paid AD on a per capita basis. His $1.45 million is not the single highest in college sports, but it accounts for the largest portion of his school's budget -- 1.75 percent of Tech's revenue and 1.84 percent of its expenses -- and the highest in comparison to his school's head football and men's basketball coaches.
