FGCU's Andy Enfield Not Independently Wealthy

Several news outlets reported that Florida Gulf Coast head coach Andy Enfield is indpendently wealthy as the co-founder of health care business information firm TractManager. The company was said to be worth $100 million.

Enfield earns a salary of $157,000 as head coach at FGCU.

"I still have to work," Enfield told ESPN's Tom Rinaldi on Monday afternoon.

After it was reported on ESPN on Monday that Enfield's story circulating in the media wasn't entirely accurate, the company's founder, Tom Rizk, said he started to get calls.

"I have no idea where that $100 million number came from," Rizk said. "It didn't come from our organization."

Enfield has been mentioned as a candidate for other coaching jobs.

"He was part of our company, he made a modest investment, he cashed out some of his stake and he still retains a small piece," said Rizk of Enfield, who was among the first group of employees, but was not a founding partner. "But, at least by my definition, he is not independently wealthy."
