Kent Syverud, who earned over $1.7 million as Syracuse University’s chancellor in 2023, is heading to the University of Michigan. Though his new contract details remain undisclosed, the move has drawn attention to what may lie ahead for his compensation.

Kristen Sharkey, a former University at Buffalo women’s basketball player and assistant coach, is reportedly the top candidate to lead UB’s women’s basketball team. Currently an assistant coach at Syracuse University, Sharkey’s potential return could bring valuable experience back to the Bulls.
