UConn men’s basketball coach Dan Hurley signs contract, extends for one year due to self-imposed sanctions
>>Hurley’s contract, paying roughly $3 million per year in base salary and other compensation, now expires on March 31, 2025. So in addition to the boost of UConn’s move from the American Athletic Conference to the Big East, Hurley now has an extra year to turn the program around after three consecutive losing seasons, including a 16-17 finish this past season, his first.
Under the terms of the deal, Hurley would owe UConn a buyout of $6 million if he were to leave before March 31, 2020. The buyout number de-escalates to $4.5 million in 2021, $3.5 million in 2022, $2 million in 2023 and zero after April 1, 2023. If Hurley were to be terminated without cause before March 31, 2023, he would get 100 percent of remaining base and supplemental salary, 75 percent if he were terminated before March 31, 2024, and 50 percent after that.<<
