Coach Otzelberger gets contract extension
- Thread starter BigJCy
- Start date
was thinking we would see this in the offseason.
You get an extenstion and you get an extension and you get an extentsion. Seriuosly though what has TJ done to deserve a new contract. Two sweet 16s and a top 5 ranking are not good enough reasons. He has not kissed any babies lately.
I like that they just locked him and Campbell up until 2032. Love it in fact.
I’ll be 51 years old then so I would prefer not to think about that.
Same "thru" year as CMC.
Wouldn't be surprised if these are Jamie's last football and basketball deals.
Good job out of everyone.

Timing seems interesting season wise. Restructuring to free up funds for NIL?
Iowa state isn’t known to have good or any coaches for this long. I love it. Well deserved
Jamie retiring very soon would shock me now. Got football and basketball locked up
Locked up with solid candidates. what a perfect time to retire and hand the reins to someone else
Wait till our next loss. At least one dumb ass will bring this extension up.But what if the rot sets in?!
I think another important item is to keep Jamie around until 2032. The guy has done more to grow ISU sports than anyone I can think of.
And we’re going to lose a few so be prepared for stupidity. No way ISU goes through the meat grinder of the big 12 season without 4-5 losses
I think he will stick around till the Cy Town construction is complete (or close to it) and then wouldn't be surprised if he hangs it up.
My guess is that he plans on probably retiring around then. Probably just before so his replacement gets to make the big decisions.
Huge win for everyone.

He'll go down as the best coach we've had. Great deal.
My guess is that this was done prior to new NIL legislation going down to show that Iowa State is committed to weathering the storm in college athletics over the next 5-7 years.
