犹他主帅斯卡利10月24日比赛日再受关注：曾自掏200万美元薪水支持球队
10月24日，ESPN《大学比赛日》节目来到盐湖城，报道不败的犹他大学橄榄球队当晚主场迎战休斯顿大学队的焦点战，节目中再度提及主教练摩根·斯卡利今年3月的一项决定：他把自己薪水中的200万美元捐回给球队，用于支持球员姓名、形象与肖像权益方面的投入。据《今日美国》报道，斯卡利是盐湖城本地人，成长于糖屋社区，父亲上世纪50年代末至60年代初曾在犹他大学担任半卫，一家几代都是犹他大学球迷，他与妻子也是在校园里相识。斯卡利2024年7月1日被定为候任主教练，2026年正式接手球队，本赛季年薪为510万美元，合同规定此后每年递增15万美元至2030年。斯卡利表示，捐出薪水是全家共同的决定，目的是回馈母校。犹他大学队本赛季6胜0负，排名全国前十，斯卡利从防守协调员升任主教练后的过渡被认为是无缝衔接。当晚的比赛于美国东部时间晚10时15分在盐湖城赖斯-埃克尔斯体育场开球，由ESPN转播。

Utah Coach Scalley in the Spotlight Again on Game Day October 24: Once Gave Back $2 Million of His Salary to Support the Team
On October 24, ESPN College GameDay came to Salt Lake City to cover undefeated University of Utah football's marquee home game that night against the University of Houston, and the program again noted a decision head coach Morgan Scalley made in March of this year: he donated $2 million of his salary back to the team to support investment in players name, image and likeness rights. According to USA Today, Scalley is a Salt Lake City native who grew up in the Sugar House neighborhood; his father played halfback at Utah in the late 1950s and early 1960s, several generations of the family are Utah fans, and he met his wife on campus as well. Scalley was named head coach-in-waiting on July 1, 2024, and formally took over the team in 2026; his salary this season is $5.1 million, with the contract providing for increases of $150,000 a year through 2030. Scalley said donating the salary was a decision the whole family made together, with the aim of giving back to his alma mater. Utah is 6-0 this season and ranked in the national top ten, and Scalley's transition from defensive coordinator to head coach is regarded as seamless. That night's game was set to kick off at 10:15 p.m. Eastern Time at Rice-Eccles Stadium in Salt Lake City, broadcast by ESPN.
