So, how would Michigan afford to pay Miles a salary comparable to Saban's?

Probably because it has the largest endowment of Div 1A football schools for an individual campus (except Stanford)
Endowment

And revenue is pretty great too.

Regarding athletic/coach salaries, revenue is much, much more relevant than endowment.

That doesn't mean Michigan is going to start selling off chunks of its endowment to chase after a football coach. I don't know the makeup of its portfolio but I do know that many endowments have large chunks of illiquid investments that are often mispriced, i.e. overstated.
