The University of Illinois and head coach Brad Underwood have agreed to new financial terms on his current six-year contract that runs through the 2031-32 season, with the deal potentially extending through 2035-36 based on the team's performance over the next four seasons. Athletic director Josh Whitman made the announcement roughly six weeks after the Illini's season concluded with the program's first NCAA Final Four appearance in 21 years.
Contract terms were not disclosed, and the agreement requires approval from university trustees. Whitman praised Underwood's leadership, stating the men's basketball program has established itself as one of the nation's premier programs.
