Tennessee coach Kim Caldwell was rewarded with a reworked contract earlier this year, raising her annual base pay to $1 million.

After a mightily impressive first season on the job in Knoxville, Kim Caldwell was rewarded with a reworked contract and one-year extension by Tennessee.

Details of the contract weren’t available back in March, but documents obtained by SB Nation this week show that Caldwell is now one of the highest paid coaches in the SEC and the nation.
