LAS CRUCES, N.M. – New Mexico State Director of Athletics Mario Moccia announced Thursday that head men's basketball coach Chris Jans has agreed to a restructured contract that will keep him through the 2021-22 season.
"The success Coach Jans had in his inaugural season was phenomenal," said Moccia. "After three-consecutive seasons with a new head coach, it was imperative for the program to retain him for the long term. Being fiscally responsible is a must at NM State Athletics and 100% of the funds towards the new contract came from private donors and funds made available through our recent debt extension.
