The Bulldogs were the sixth-highest paid assistant staff in the country in 2018. But UGA’s $5,621,500 in salaries for assistants in 2019 is down compared to 2018. New numbers are not readily available for all staffs around the country, but 2019 UGA will likely check in around No. 10 or lower in 2019. That fall in total salary is due to the departure of Mel Tucker ($1,500,000) and Jim Chaney ($950,000).
