I can't help but wonder where it ends. Extrapolation says it can't go on indefinitely.

I'm old enough to remember when it was a big deal that the HC made more than the highest paid faculty, and then than the U President. The 10 assistant coaches in that list AVERAGE over 500 K. That's probably 3-4 times as much as the average faculty salary. It may be more than any single faculty member, depending on some other factors. The 10th highest paid assistant makes 270 K, probably twice as much as the average faculty salary.

How long until assistants average over a million per year? How long until the 10th highest paid assistant makes more than the highest paid faculty?

And the thing is, I get the impression that the money isn't just wasted. I mean, if a school said no, we won't just pay more and more, we're holding the line, then the school would start getting worse coaches and start losing more and thus the money coming in would slow up.

Maybe you could try to get every school to hold the line at once but even if so, you know there'd be under the table payments.

What's the answer and where does it end? I don't know.

It doesn't end--salaries will continue to increase as long as the money FBS is generating increases. I don't see that changing.

No you couldn't. There is this minor impediment called the Sherman Antitrust Act.
