What you need to know about Nate Oat’s Alabama contract: This is the Crimson Tide’s head coach’s salary

Nate Oats led the Crimson Tide to first place in the 2020-2021 regular season and managed to make it to the Sweet Sixteen in the NCAA Tournament in 2021. The success in his first year at Alabama greatly increased the teams recruiting, which allowed them to get Brandon Miller who later went on to become the second pick in the 2023 NBA Draft.

Alabama is ranked second in the AP Top-25, just behind Auburn. The Crimson Tide are 20-3 this season and Saturday’s match up against SEC rival Auburn will be a huge test to see where they stand just before March Madness rolls around.

Nate Oat’s contract details with Alabama basketball

The Crimson Tide’s HC had his contract extended last year through the 2028-2029 season. He is currently one of the highest paid coaches in college basketball and will receive a $200,000 bonus each year until reaching an annual salary of $5.5 million in 2029.

He has earned his money at Alabama over five seasons with four SEC titles and three straight appearances in the last three editions of March Madness. Currently No. 2 in the country (that could change if they beat Auburn), the Crimson Tide are on a fast track to make it back to the NCAA Tournament.
