Michigan State football coach Mark Dantonio is pulling in $5.6 million this year, making him the second-highest-paid college football coach in the country, according to a new database compiled by USA TODAY Sports.

Dantonio trails only Alabama's Nick Saban, a former MSU coach who is making $7.2 million in 2014.

Dantonio's pay is inflated by a $2-million stay-bonus that kicked in when he remained on the job through Jan. 15, 2014. That bonus was put in place in 2011. Dantonio got a raise this summer, bumping his salary from just less than $2 million annually to $3.6 million.

Rounding out the top five highest-paid coaches are Oklahoma's Bob Stoops ($5.1 million), Texas A&M's Kevin Sumlin ($5 million) and Texas' Charlie Strong ($5 million). Ohio State's Urban Meyer is sixth, at $4.5 million.

Michigan's Brady Hoke is 30th, at $2.9 million.

Chris Creighton is making $425,000 at Eastern Michigan (107th), P.J. Fleck $392,500 at Western Michigan (115th) and Dan Enos $360,000 at Central Michigan (119th). Only Todd Berry at Louisiana-Monroe ($358,250) and Scott Satterfield at Appalachian State ($225,000) make less than Enos at FBS schools who reported numbers.
