Mark Few, unlike some other NCAA basketball coaches, has had a smooth career in coaching. Per Fansided, Few was first hired as an assistant coach for Gonzaga before he was promoted to head coach in 1999 — a position he's held for the past 22 years. His longevity within the team has been reflected in his salary, which was raised from almost $1.8 million to a little over $3 million in 2019, according to USA Today, before going back down to $1.9 million during the pandemic season.
The salary bump surely added to his net worth, which is estimated to be about $12 million, per Celebrity Net Worth. Few's achievements with Gonzaga have made him one of the winningest basketball head coaches in NCAA history. He holds the record for the most consecutive NCAA Tournaments since he was appointed Gonzaga's head coach, and is "the third-fastest coach to reach 500 wins," per Fansided.
If Gonzaga were to win the 2021 NCAA Tournament, which starts on March 18, Few would certainly be getting another pay raise in the near future.
