Okay, so I spent a bit of time today trying to figure out something specific: Chad Prewett’s salary over at Auburn. You know how sometimes you just get curious about these things? Well, that was me today.

My Process Trying to Find the Info
First thing I did was pretty standard. I jumped on my computer and started searching online. Typed in the usual stuff like “Chad Prewett Auburn salary”, “Auburn football staff salaries”, and variations like that. Just casting a wide net to see what popped up.
Lots of articles and forum discussions came back, mostly talking about the head coach’s salary, which isn’t surprising. Head coach pay is usually big news and easier to find. Finding specifics on support staff or analysts like Prewett? That’s often a bit trickier.
So, my next step was to look for more official sources. I thought maybe there’d be public records or state employee salary databases online. Alabama, like many states, sometimes has websites where you can look up state employee pay. I spent some time digging through those kinds of resources.
- Checked a couple of state salary portal sites.
- Looked through Auburn University’s official website, hoping for maybe an athletics department budget report or something similar.
- Scanned sports news outlets known for covering Auburn football closely, thinking they might have reported on contract details at some point.
What I Found (or Didn’t Find)
Honestly, getting a precise, up-to-date number specifically for Chad Prewett was tough. While there’s plenty of info about overall athletic department spending at major universities like Auburn, and you can easily find the head coach’s multi-million dollar deal, the salaries for specific assistant coaches, analysts, or support staff aren’t always individually listed in public databases or news reports.

Sometimes you might see a total pool of money allocated for assistant coach salaries, but not the breakdown person by person. State employee databases can be useful, but sometimes athletic positions funded through athletic department revenue (like ticket sales, donations, TV deals) don’t show up in the same way as standard state-funded university jobs.
So, after poking around for a while, I didn’t land on a concrete, verified salary figure for Chad Prewett himself from a source I’d consider totally reliable, like an official contract release or a state database entry. You see general ranges for roles sometimes, or hear figures mentioned in discussions, but nailing down the number proved elusive during my search today.
That’s the rundown of my little investigation. It’s often like this with salaries outside the very top positions – takes a bit more digging, and sometimes the info just isn’t easily available to the public.
