Kansas has agreed to a new contract for coach Lance Leipold that features a significant raise in his average salary to more than $7 million per year, sources told ESPN.

The new contract does not feature any new years in his deal that runs through 2029, per sources, but the raise from the $5 million he made in 2023 serves as another sign of Kansas' aggressive commitment to football in recent years under athletic director Travis Goff.

The average of more than $7 million per year through the life of the deal elevates Leipold to the top three in average salary in the Big 12.
