Virginia Director of Athletics Craig Littlepage announced Tuesday (June 3) the University has signed men’s basketball head coach Tony Bennett to a new 7-year contract through the 2020-21 season. The contract replaces an extension to Bennett’s original contract signed in 2012 that was scheduled to end following the 2018-19 season.
“We are pleased with Coach Bennett’s commitment to the University of Virginia,” Littlepage said. “Tony believes in the goals of the athletics department and the mission of the University. The vision he had for our program when he accepted the head coaching position is developing according to his plan. It will be exciting to watch the development of our players and the program in the coming years.”
