Texas Tech extends coach Grant McCasland through 2030-31

Texas Tech signed men’s basketball coach Grant McCasland to a contract extension through the 2030-31 season on Monday.
The contract is worth $31.5 million, the school confirmed to the Lubbock Avalanche Journal, with a salary of $5 million next season and annual $100,000 raises until McCasland makes $5.5 million in the sixth and final year of the deal.
“Coach McCasland immediately built upon our men’s basketball program’s established success and continues working to raise and deliver on high expectations,” Texas Tech athletic director Kirby Hocutt said in a statement. “We look forward to an exciting future for Texas Tech basketball under Coach McCasland’s leadership.”
McCasland, 48, came to Texas Tech two years ago after stints as the head coach of Arkansas State (2016-17) and North Texas (2017-23). His 51-20 record at Texas Tech is the winningest mark for a head coach through his first two season in program history.
The Red Raiders went 28-9 in 2024-25 and advanced to the Elite Eight of the NCAA Tournament — beating John Calipari’s Arkansas in the Sweet 16 before falling to eventual national champion Florida.
McCasland has gone 206-97 as a Division I head coach. At North Texas, he led the Mean Green to a CBI championship in 2018 and an NIT title in 2023.
