Missouri head coach Eli Drinkwitz's magic number is 8
Wesley Hitt/GettyImagesAfter another successful season, Mizzou locked up head coach Eli Drinkwitz with a fresh extension in November, and now the details of the contract have been released.
The contract is for six more years for a total of $64.5million dollars. The staff salary pool has also been increased by $4 million, and is now $16 million in total. However, the most interesting part of the deal might be the incentives built into the deal.
For every season that the Tigers win eight games or more in the regular season, Drinkwitz will automatically get one-year, and an additional $200,000 added onto the contract.
