Larranaga receives three-year extension
NCAA Basketball Betting Lines
01/27/2012 - Coral Gables, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Miami-Florida men's basketball coach Jim Larranaga has agreed to a three-year contract extension that will keep him with the Hurricanes through the 2018-19 season.
Larranaga is in his first year with the Hurricanes after building a successful program at George Mason. Miami is 11-7 this season, including 2-3 in the ACC.
"I'm thrilled with this three-year extension and the commitment it shows to our program," Larranaga said in a statement. "My staff and I are confident we can build the type of program that will be a source of pride for the entire university."
Larranaga left George Mason last spring as the school's all-time wins leader, going 273-164 during a tenure highlighted by a memorable and surprising Final Four run in 2006.
"Jim is a first-class representative of our university and we look forward to having him at the helm of our program for many years to come," said Miami athletic director Shawn Eichorst.
The 62-year-old Larranaga was also head coach at Bowling Green (1986-97) and American International College (1977-79). He took over at Miami after Frank Haith left to take the vacancy at Missouri.
