Florida basketball coach Todd Golden gets another contract extension and a $1.5M raise

  • On Friday, Florida Gators men's basketball head coach Todd Golden signed a six-year, $49.5 million contract extension, becoming the highest-paid coach in school history.
  • The extension follows Golden's success leading the Gators to the program's third national title in 2025, during which he posted a 36-4 record.
  • Golden will earn $7.5 million next season, up from $6 million, ranking him fourth nationally behind Kansas' Bill Self, UConn's Dan Hurley, and Arkansas' John Calipari.
  • Associate head coach Carlin Hartman and assistant Korey McCray also received extensions as Florida continues supporting a roster backed by over $25 million in NIL spending.
  • Golden's $16 million college buyout deters departure, though his NBA exit costs only $3 million next season; he aims to join Self and Hurley as a two-time champion.
