Ohio State Assistant Coaches Kevin Wilson, Brian Hartline, Al Washington and Matt Barnes Receive Salary Increases for 2021 Season

Four of Ohio State's returning assistant coaches received raises this offseason.

Ohio State offensive coordinator Kevin Wilson will now be paid $1.4 million – which means he and defensive coordinator Kerry Coombs are now tied for the highest-paid assistant coaches on Ryan Day's staff – while wide receivers coach Brian Hartline, linebackers coach Al Washington and secondary coach Matt Barnes will each be paid $600,000 in 2021, per their new contracts obtained by Eleven Warriors through a public records request on Wednesday.

Wilson previously had a salary of $1.2 million in 2020, while Hartline made $550,000, Washington made $515,000 and and Barnes made $450,000 last season.
