On Monday, Dan Hurley and UConn have agreed to a new contract for six years valued at $50 million dollars.


The back-to-back National Champion head coach for the Huskies will receive a base salary of $400,000 per year. Along with the base salary, Dan Hurley will also receive $6.375 million dollars for speaking, consulting, and media obligations through the 2024-2025 season.

UConn President, Radenka Maric, said, “In addition to the exceptional program he has built over a period of years and the extraordinary back-to-back NCAA championships he and his teams won, Coach Hurley serves as a critical mentor to our student-athletes, pushing them to achieve both on the court and in the classroom, helping to lay the groundwork for their success in life long after they have left UConn. We are grateful both for his championship culture and for his leadership at our university and in our state.”
