I'm pretty sure the football coach is the highest paid state employee since our big university is a state school.

Highest paid public employee not just at the universities but compared to every public employee in the state.

~~These are the eight where it isn't a football coach as of 2020:~~

edit: screw it couldn't format it to look good

If you live in the southeast, Midwest, or Texas/Oklahoma I can almost guarantee you the head football coach is the highest paid state employee by a considerable margin.

Yup. The highest paid public employees are all big football school coaches
