Cincinnati extends contracts of Tommy Tuberville and Mick Cronin

The football and men's basketball coaches received contract extensions Monday.

Stability is an important factor for any successful athletics program. The best teams at most any level are the ones who have developed a winning culture by following the same head coach for year after year. Cincinnati, in an attempt to follow that blueprint, extended the contracts of head coaches Tommy Tuberville and Mick Cronin two years each on Monday.
