Arizona State and football coach Kenny Dillingham have agreed to a new five-year contract that will put him in the top tier of Big 12 coaching salaries, sources told ESPN.

Dillingham's five-year deal includes a "pathway" to extend out to 10 years, according to sources. While Arizona law limits state school contracts to five years, sources said incentives give the deal the runway to get to 10 years.

The new deal includes a wide-ranging commitment to football at Arizona State, which won the Big 12 this season and plays Texas in the College Football Playoff quarterfinals Wednesday.
