A big-name coach secured his future with a Big 12 football program by making an unselfish act.
Per Max Olson of ESPN, Matt Campbell agreed to a contract extension with Iowa State that will keep him in Ames through 2032. He took a program-friendly discount to keep a top staff and allocate $1 million in rev-share funds.
“Iowa State and coach Matt Campbell have finalized his extension through 2032,” Olson posted on X. “He’ll earn $5 million per year in total compensation.
“The 3x Big 12 Coach of the Year took a discount on the deal to ensure his staff pool increased and allowed ISU to allocate an additional $1 million in rev-share funds for football, sources told ESPN.”
