Vanderbilt announces contract extension for Derek Mason

Despite putting up his fifth straight sub-.500 season during his five years in Nashville, Derek Mason has again been rewarded by his employer.

In a press release Friday, Vanderbilt announced that Mason, along with two other head coaches in other sports, is on the receiving end of a contract extension from the university. The length of the extension was not divulged.

Also not divulged were any financial enhancements that may have been included as part of the amended contract. Mason’s $2.8 million salary in 2018 was 12th in the 14-team SEC, ahead of only Mississippi State’s Joe Moorhead ($2.6 million) and Missouri’s Barry Odom ($2.35 million).

Can anyone name another Power 5 Conference school where the head footbal coach goes 24-38 overall, 9-31 in conference over 5 years and gets his contract extended?

Best I could come up with was Paul Rhodes who got a ten year extension after three years 18-20 (9-17 Conf).


"Nov. 18, 2011. Iowa State: 37. No. 2 Oklahoma State: 31... Two months later, it (ISU) rewarded Rhoads with a massive contract extension — 10 years and $20 million...

My rep is fine, I think (if that mattered.) I know Florida is a good school. Don’t let your facts get in the way of my SEC shaming, though. It takes the fun out of it.

Having lived in SEC country for quite awhile, I can tell everyone here that many of the schools in the conference are underrated academically.

They're also overrated athletically, though, so it's kind of a wash.
