Matta Signs Contract Extension

Basketball Coach Thad Matta has signed a contract that will go through the 2014-2015 season. Previously Matta was making $1.4 million/year and his new contract will put him at $2.26 million. That will place him at second in the Big Ten behind Michigan State coach Tom Izzo, who gets $2.4 million. Matta's resume is quite good, 148-49 in six seasons. He is 46-18 at OSU. His 148 victories in six seasons ranks #5 all-time in the NCAA. His 75.1% winning percentage also ranks #5 in NCAA history.
