The University of Missouri Tigers have made a big move to ensure their football program remains competitive for years to come. On Tuesday, the school announced that they have extended the contract of head coach Eliah Drinkwitz through the 2028 season.
Drinkwitz was hired by the Tigers in December of 2019 and has already made an impact on the program. In his first season, he led the team to a 5-5 record and a bowl game appearance. This season, the Tigers are off to a 4-2 start and are ranked in the top 25 of both major polls.
The extension of Drinkwitz’s contract is a sign that the school is committed to having him lead the program for the foreseeable future. The new deal will keep him in Columbia through at least the 2028 season.
The extension is also a sign that the school is confident in Drinkwitz’s ability to lead the program to success. He has already shown that he can recruit top talent and develop players to reach their potential. With the extension, Drinkwitz will have plenty of time to continue to build on the foundation he has already laid.
The University of Missouri is clearly committed to having Eliah Drinkwitz as their head coach for many years to come. With his contract extended through 2028, he will have plenty of time to continue to build a successful program and make the Tigers a force to be reckoned with in college football.
