New Mexico coach Jason Eck agreed to a new five-year contract on Sunday after a nine-win season that represents the most in school history by a first-year coach.
Eck's annual salary will increase to $1.75 million from $1.25 million, according to ESPN, in what is essentially a one-year extension through 2030.
New Mexico said the new deal replaces Eck's original five-year contract signed in December 2024.
The Lobos went 9-3 overall and 6-2 in Mountain West play this season. It marks just the school's third nine-win campaign this century. The 48-year-old Eck and New Mexico can the match the school-best number of victories -- 10-1 in 1982 -- with a bowl game win.
New Mexico recorded a 23-17 double-overtime victory over San Diego State on Saturday to tie for the Mountain West regular-season
