Joseph Doud has a five-year contract through June 2025 to coach the men's rowing program at his Alma Mater Manhattan College. He earns $50,000 per year.
After a series of disagreements with Athletic Director Maria O'Reilly, Doud quietly negotiates a five-year deal with Saint John's Athletic Director Michelangelo Caravaggio to coach their men's rowing team for the sum of $200,000 per year.

To replace Coach Doud, they hire Mickey Ward for two years at $75,000 per year.
