What is Curt Cignetti's salary at Indiana? Here's what to know on Cignetti's contract details, and where he ranks among other head coaches.

Curt Cignetti is proving to be a nightmare for college football. Not for the sport, but for his peers who have long proclaimed that a national championship requires a blue-chip roster as its prerequisite.

Chizik's 2010 title remains the most-recent national title Auburn has won, and it was almost as unlikely as Indiana's this season. Ranked No. 20 in the preseason poll, the Hoosiers are the lowest-ranked preseason team to win the national championship since the 2010 Tigers, which was ranked No. 22 in the preseason AP Poll.

RJ Young: “Michigan head coach Kyle Whittingham, one of the most underrated coaches in the sport, will enter 2026 leading the winningest program in college football history with a quarterback talented enough to help the Wolverines contend for the Big Ten championship.”

Curt Cignetti was not a fan of some of the hits his quarterback took in the first half of the national championship game against Miami.
