Lanning will receive an annual salary of around $750,000 in his new role, while Schumann will get roughly $550,000 according to DawgNation.
Every returning assistant for 2019 will get a raise as well, with all of the coaching salaries as follows.

The two assistants’ promotions do not come as a surprise but were officially announced by the program Friday. Lanning and Schumann will replace Colorado Buffaloes head coach Mel Tucker at the defensive coordinator position for Georgia.
Tucker left the Bulldogs following the SEC Championship game to become the Buffaloes’ next head coach after they fired Mike MacIntyre during the 2018 season.
