After leading Baylor football to its winningest season in program history, head coach Dave Aranda is here for the long haul. After a few months of speculation as to when it would happen, Baylor and Aranda announced they finalized a contract extension Tuesday that runs through 2029. However, since Baylor is a private institution the specific contract terms are not disclosed.

“Baylor University is extremely pleased to make a long-term commitment to coach Dave Aranda. He is truly one of the brightest minds in college football,” President Linda Livingstone said. “Coming off the most successful football season in Baylor history, we believe he has our football program and our student-athletes poised for ongoing development and sustained success.
