For reference the NBA ratio is less than 1:25. The highest paid coaches are getting $16MM but the mean and median are $3.5-4MM. Salary cap for the NBA is $141MM this year.

Seems like colleges are overpaying coaches and underpaying players by comparison.

So what's the correct ratio to get the best team on the floor for BYU?

Considering coaches were paid infinitely more than players two years ago there's been a lot of progress but whatever schools figure this out the quickest are going to have a huge advantage going forward.
