Wolverine basketball coach Juwan Howard agreed to a five-year contract extension through the 2025–26 season, the school announced hours before Michigan's game against Seton Hall on Tuesday.
Per the school, Howard's extension will become effective immediately.
Howard led the Wolverines to a No. 1 seed in the East region of the 2021 NCAA Tournament and the third No. 1 seed in program history, joining the 1985 and 1993 teams. He also became the the first person to secure a No. 1 seed as a former player and coach in the NCAA Tournament.
"I'm honored to be regarded in such a way that the University wished to continue a lasting relationship with me," Howard said.
