When Ryan Grubb decided at age 29 to give up a career in agriculture and pursue football coaching full-time, he knew what he was signing up for: long hours, high-stress situations, limited vacation time and most likely, a salary that wouldn’t inspire jealousy. 

Grubb got his first full-time coaching job in 2007 at Sioux Falls, an NAIA school. There, Kalen DeBoer hired him to “coach the offensive line, run the strength and conditioning program, do the laundry and drive the bus,” Grubb joked to USA TODAY Sports, acknowledging that at schools with smaller budgets, everyone has to multitask.

“Every day it was, ‘I gotta go set up the gym for conditioning, Johnny needs his helmet fixed and someone needs their ankles taped.’ It was all part of the gig.” For these tasks, he was paid $2,700 per season.
