Time pushes to the 2020 season, and the highest annual salary coach in all North American sports leagues is Bill Billy Bilicek of the New England Patriots.

The coach who led the team to establish a dynasty for twenty years was the longest record holder of the NFL season for 17 consecutive years, while the Kansas Chief, ranked second, only had four consecutive years. From this, we can see Bilicheck's ability. It is no surprise that the New England Patriots gave such a high annual salary.

Bilicheck's annual salary is $12 million.

Tie to second place is Gregg-popovich of the San Antonio Spurs, whose three-year contract signed in 2019 has an annual salary of $11 million; and Pete Carroll of the Seattle Seahawks, whose annual salary also increased to $11 million when he renewed his contract in 2018.

Tie 4 are Doc-rivers of the Los Angeles Clippers and Jon Gruden of the Oakland Raiders, with an annual salary of up to $10 million. The former is a 2013 contract, and the latter is a contract signed after returning from retirement in 2018, worth $100 million in ten years.

The above is that there are only five coaches in all sports leagues in North America with annual salary of more than $10 million.

Outside this, Sean Payton of the New Orleans Saints ranked sixth and nine hundred and seven hundred and fifty thousand; John Hubble of the Baltimore Ravens ranked tenth and nine million; Sean McVay of the Los Angeles Rams ranked thirteenth and eight hundred and fifteenth and eight million; Mac Tomlin of the Pittsburgh Steelers tied for 15th and eight million.

It is worth mentioning that Lu Yiqi's mentor Nick Shaban completed the contract renewal with the University of Alabama with an annual salary of $9.4 million. He is also the coach with the highest annual salary of NCAA.

It's clear at a glance!

All of these contract numbers are annual salary in 2020. Bilicek's annual salary contract is also updated in 2017, setting a historical record. It was eleven years ahead of schedule and returned to the current offseason in 2009. So who is the NFL coach with the highest annual salary now?

The answer is that Sean Payton of the New Orleans Saints earns nine million dollars an year; Bill Bilicheck of the New England Patriot ranks second, earning seven and a half million dollars an year.

In other words, in 2009, no coach in all sports leagues in North America could exceed eight digits of annual salary!

First compare horizontally, then vertically, how outrageous and crazy the contract of "150 million in ten years" will be immediately highlighted!

It's crazy!

Even when Lu Yiqi was mentally prepared, he was still shocked by the fact that he was very surprised-

If this contract is really signed, then in ten years, Lu Yiqi will still be the highest-paid coach in the league. This honor is indeed too dazzling? Even a little too dazzling? Lu Yiqi strongly suspects that he will be assassinated by the bosses of the other 31 teams, as this has seriously damaged the market balance.

Best in history?

really!

Seeing Lu Yiqi almost got scared to cough? Griffin was very satisfied with this effect? ​​He raised his jaw proudly, "How is it? Are you curious now?"

Lu Yiqi had to admit that he did underestimate the entire situation? The only thought in his mind was? “They shouldn’t be crazy, are they?”

Otherwise, give a second-grade coach a contract that breaks historical records in ten years and 150 million?

Griffin showed a strong dissatisfaction expression, "Why don't you say that I have a good job?"

"Haha." Lu Yiqi was amused directly, because the shock brought by the contract numbers was relieved a lot? "It is because of your excellent work? I got the right to speak for the draft. I am very satisfied. I know you will not continue to speak wildly."

If Lu Yiqi had asked the conditions, he would hope to get the decision-making power of the draft more than a salary of 150 million yuan in ten years. This is the craziest thing.

Griffin also understood this? He shook his head left and right, "Okay? You make sense."

Then I began to explain, "It is because of your initiative? It shows your strength, and the joint statement of the shareholders' meeting? There is also the attitude that the league officials have always wanted to promote you? You should know that there is only one Asian head coach in all sports leagues in North America, and it is the second head coach in history to win the NCAA National Championship and the NFL Super Bowl Championship at the same time. Such weight makes them also need to show their trump card."

Indeed, Lu Yiqi's age, experience, resume, etc. are still too short, and it is only the second year of his coaching career, so it is difficult to improve the contract at once; but at the same time, Lu Yiqi's results, performance, identity, etc. collide with chemistry, but has an incredible appeal—

Just look at Nike. It’s the first time I signed a contract with the head coach. So how should the Green Bay Packers renew the contract? This is also the focus of the entire league.

Therefore, Lu Yiqi's contract renewal is a game, not only a game between Lu Yiqi and Green Bay Packers, but also a game between Green Bay Packers and multi-angle relationships. To put it in the overall situation, this may also be related to the promotion of Green Bay Packers in the North American market and the layout of the global market.

Although Green Bay Packers are different from the other 31 teams and are not owned by private parties, this also means that interests are not the first pursuit, even so, Green Bay Packers cannot rely on chicken blood to operate. Interests are part of the team's considerations after all, how could the management not know this?

Therefore, the relationship between Green Bay Packers and the league, shareholders' meeting, other teams, and the market has become an interfering factor in this contract renewal.

In addition, Griffin also ignored one thing. After the end of the Super Bowl, the miracle of "Ocean Biscuits" even received close attention from the White House - they all looked forward to the legendary story of Lu Yiqi's counterattack to win the championship to inspire the market and find a glimmer of hope in the darkness of the financial crisis.

To some extent, such expectations also hindered the hands and feet of the Green Bay Packers' management. In addition to their own fans, they also need to take care of other fans and the general public's ideas and cannot "treat" the miracle creators. Under various factors, they have achieved crazy quotes.

It can be thought that if it was before the Super Bowl, Lu Yiqi's contract renewal negotiations might be a different situation; but after winning the Super Bowl, things went off track. Even Lu Yiqi and Green Bay Packers management, including league president Goodell, did not expect the development of the situation.

Then, they came to their current location, and the incredible and crazy quote was officially born.
