A person familiar with the situation says LSU women's basketball coach Kim Mulkey has agreed to a 10-year contract worth about $32 million.
FILE - LSU head coach Kim Mulkey celebrates after cutting down the net after the NCAA Women's Final Four championship basketball game against Iowa, Sunday, April 2, 2023, in Dallas. Mulkey has agreed to a new 10-year contract worth about $32 million that will make her the highest-paid coach in women's college basketball, according to a person with knowledge of the deal.
The person spoke to The Associated Press on Thursday on condition of anonymity because contract details, first reported by The Advocate of Baton Rouge, have not been made public. The deal also still needs approval from the LSU Board of Supervisors, who are scheduled to vote on it Friday. It was her fourth national title as a head coach — the first three coming at Baylor, where she coached from 2000 to 2021. Her record at LSU in two seasons combined is 50-8, with NCAA Tournament appearances both years.
