Next week, the Board of Regents will convene, with one of the major agenda items posted on Friday evening including a contract extension for Texas Longhorns head coach Tom Herman, as first noted by the Austin American-Statesman.
Following the program’s first 10-win season since 2009, Herman will receive two extra years on his contract at $6.5 million for 2022 and $6.750 million for 2023, though those yearly increases are the same as those set by the original contract he signed in Nov. 2016. Herman’s annual compensation will remain set at $3.
