Minnesota basketball coach Richard Pitino has agreed to a two-year contract extension, coming off his first NCAA Tournament win in six seasons with the Gophers.
Once the deal is approval by the board of regents, Pitino will be under contract through the 2023-24 season. He also gets a raise.
He is 112-91 at Minnesota, with two appearances in the NCAA Tournament. The Gophers were a No. 10 seed this year, beating Louisville in the first round before losing to Michigan State.
