Minnesota Football: P.J. Fleck agrees to contract extension through 2026

The University of Minnesota and head football coach P.J. Fleck have agreed to a new seven-year contract, pending approval from the Board of Regents. No details have been announced regarding his annual salary, but Yahoo! Sports’ Pete Thamel is reporting that both Fleck and his coaching staff are expected to receive significant pay raises.

The new contract keeps Fleck in Minneapolis through 2026.

Fleck originally signed a five-year, $18 million contract when he was first hired back in January 2017. He received a one-year extension at the end of 2017, and then another in late 2018 to extend his deal through through 2023 for a total of $25.
