South Carolina Gamecocks men's basketball coach Frank Martin has done a spectacular job in his fourth season on the job. After three straight losing seasons, the program is a three-seed in the upcoming SEC Tournament and, barring a surprise, is set to make its first NCAA Tournament appearance in twelve years. The university is ready to reward him as a result, specifically with a four-year contract that will keep him in Columbia until the 2021-2022 season, according to a report from The State's David Cloninger.
