Interim Athletic Director Jim Hackett announced on Wednesday that Michigan basketball coach John Beilein has received an extension through the 2020-21 season.
“John is one of the most respected coaches in the country and revered people within the university community,” said Hackett. “While he has accomplished many great things on the basketball court, it is his leadership, guidance and role as an educator that truly makes him one of our great ambassadors. We look forward to John continuing to represent the University of Michigan for many years to come.”
With many years being plagued by disappointing fall seasons because of coaches like Rich Rodriguez and Brady Hoke, Beilein has given us that bright spot to look forward to each season.
