As of 2026, Will Stein’s salary is reportedly around $1.2 million per year. Yes, that’s a lot of guac. But compare him to other coordinators—he’s a bargain.
Oregon got a steal. He’s literally stealing touchdowns from opponents. For a million bucks, you get a guy who can turn a quarterback into a Heisman candidate.
Bo Nix Says “Thank You”
Remember Bo Nix? He was good at Auburn. Then Stein showed up. Suddenly, Bo became a statistical monster. Stein’s magic made him a first-round draft pick.
That’s the kind of ROI that makes athletic directors dance. A million bucks for a quarterback upgrade? That’s cheaper than a used Ferrari.
