The Miami Hurricanes may be losing basketball players to the NBA Draft, but their coach Jim Larrañaga plans to stay put for at least six more years.
Larrañaga on Tuesday agreed in principle to a two-year contract extension with the university, Director of Athletics Blake James announced. The extension will take him through May 31, 2024.
“Coach Larrañaga is an integral part of our athletics department’s success, and he continues to demonstrate year after year that he is one of the best basketball coaches in the nation,” James said. “We are fortunate that he and Liz have made Miami their home and that they will remain a part of the Hurricane Family for years to come.
