Leach contract extended; Grinch, Salave'a sign multi-year deals

Following the Washington State Cougars' win over the Miami Hurricanes in the Hyundai Sun Bowl, Mike Leach's contract has been extended through the 2020 season, Washington State director of athletics Bill Moos announced Tuesday.

Defensive coordinator Alex Grinch and assistant head coach/defensive line coach Joe Salave'a also signed multi-year contracts to remain on staff. Previously, Washington State assistants under Leach have worked on one-year deals.

"Mike Leach and his entire staff have done a tremendous job in building our football program, and the goal is to keep moving forward," said Moos.
