Actually he probably is close to the Top 10. in 2007 he made a bit over 100k according to this.

You will also note according to the above he had only gotten cost of living raises.

according to this link updated in 2009 that would have put him 3rd in the ACC, 2nd in the Big Ten,
4th in the SEC 1st in the PAC 10 and 2nd in the Big 12. Browsing down the list of the Top 100 programs that
year he would have been 9th. (remember the info on Warren is 2 years older and he was trying to get a new contract)

Couldn't kind any information more recent but he is probably still in the same ballpark.
So personally I find it very easy to believe.
