Geno Auriemma Secures $18.7M Contract Extension with UConn

The legendary coach will remain with the Huskies through 2029, continuing his storied career with new financial terms and incentives.

Auriemma's new five-year deal makes him the highest-paid coach in women's college basketball.
The contract includes a base salary of $400,000 annually, with additional compensation for media obligations.
Performance-based incentives could further increase the contract's value.
The extension raises the buyout cost if Auriemma leaves for another job.
Auriemma is set to become the winningest coach in college basketball history next season.
