Lanning's 35 wins are tied for second-most by any FBS coach in his first three seasons, trailing only Lincoln Riley's 36 at Oklahoma. He is tied with Chris Petersen (Boise State), Larry Coker (Miami) and Bob Pruett (Marshall). 

Even as schools prepare to share revenue with players for the first time in 2025, coach salaries continue rising. After leading Ohio State to a national championship, coach Ryan Day signed a contract that will pay him an average of $12.5 million through 2031. Texas coach Steve Sarkisian signed a seven-year contract that will average $11.6 million through 2031.
