KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Tennessee has given Butch Jones a $500,000 raise that will increase his annual pay to $4.1 million.
The school announced the raise Monday. Jones didn't receive an extension, as his contract continues to run through the 2020 season.
"We have the right leader to get us to our ultimate destination, and we are rewarding him accordingly," athletic director Dave Hart said in a statement.
Jones is 20-17 in three seasons at Tennessee and 70-44 in nine seasons overall. Tennessee is 8-4 this season, which marks the first time the Volunteers have won more than seven games in a year since 2007.
