John Wildhack reiterates Dino Babers contract extension is ‘long-term’ at press conference

Last Tuesday, a Syracuse athletics employee tweeted a graphic revealing Dino Babers’ contract length for the first time. On Monday, Syracuse director of athletics John Wildhack reiterated Babers’ contract extension is “long-term,” but that tweet, which listed the extension through 2024, was “inaccurate.”

When asked directly if the contract extension was through 2024 as stated in the graphic tweeted last week, Wildhack said: “That tweet was incorrect. Inaccurate. Again, long-term extension.”

Wildhack didn’t confirm the contract extension was longer than 2024, either. He did however note that recruits now can expect to play for Babers.
