USA Today just updated their Men's BB coaches salaries today. Prior to today, they had David Padgett listed as coach for Louisville. Today they have Chris Mack listed there.
Mack is #6 on the Coach's compensation ranking.

But the fascinating thing to me is that USA Today posted this note on Mack's buyout from Xavier:
"In addition to the School Pay amount, the university paid $2,947,500 to Xavier in connection with the buyout Mack owed for terminating his contract with that school, plus a $2,580,986 tax gross-up on that amount."
This means Louisville paid $5,528,486 to buy out Mack's Xavier contract.
