Robin Wenneker, who will chair Missouri's board of curators in 2024, said in a statement that a contract extension and a salary raise for Drinkwitz had been decided before the opening of the transfer portal in early December. Terms of Drinkwitz's new agreement were not immediately disclosed. His previous extension increased his salary to $6 million this season.
"This contract puts Coach Drink where he belongs, in the upper echelon of SEC head coach salaries,' Wenneker said in a statement. "To continue in championship style, keeping Coach Drink and his staff together was the number one priority for the Board of Curators and its administration."
