COLUMBIA, Mo. * After leading Missouri's baseball team to the most improved record in the Southeastern Conference, longtime coach Tim Jamieson will be back next season after all. Jamieson's contract was set to expire on June 30, but new athletics director Mack Rhoades announced a three-year contract extension for Jamieson on Wednesday.
Jamieson will not receive a pay increase under the new deal, but the program will receive a budget increase.
"We are pleased Tim will continue to lead our program," Rhoades said. "This year's team made encouraging progress and we look forward to moving the program forward with the current roster of talented, young student-athletes in addition to the highly-regarded young men joining our program next year.
