Yea sounded like they said he was close, then later they said it was done. What he do, sign it at half-time?

Per a JA tweet, announced by SNY during the broadcast.

The best part the news, according to SNY, is Coach Auriemma’s contract is 5 more years , on top of this ongoing season. Now on contract for six seasons, including this one. It’s such a great time to be a Husky fan.

On the broadcast, they said that this would mean the contract would expire in 2018.

Hey, recruiting class of 2014, you might want to pay attention to that...

A five year contract would put Geno close to winning 1000 games and the all-time win record.

It's also a meassage that if you want to be a head coach, it won't be at UCONN for awhile. Jen is already a head coach but she will have to look else where if she wants to move up. Shea will also have to look else where unless she is willing to wait.

1000 games is not near the all time win record. Pat's record is closer to 1100 at 1098.
