    Mike Krzyzewski is once again Duke's highest-paid employee.

    The Associated Press on Monday obtained the university's most recent IRS documents for the fiscal year that ended June 30, 2010.

    Krzyzewski's total compensation for that year was listed as nearly $4.7 million. That includes a base salary of $2 million, more than $2.2 million in bonuses and incentives and $420,000 in retirement and other deferred compensation.

    The Hall of Fame coach annually ranks as the highest-paid employee at Duke. The private school has a longstanding policy of not discussing contracts or salaries.

    The Blue Devils appear to be getting their money's worth: During that fiscal year, Krzyzewski won his second straight Atlantic Coast Conference tournament title, followed that up with his fourth NCAA tournament championship and spent much of the 2010-11 season ranked No. 1.
