UCLA Coach Ben Howland, who has led the Bruins to consecutive Final Four appearances, agreed to a new seven-year contract that will carry through the 2013-2014 season. According to a statement today from Athletic Director Dan Guerrero, Howland's base salary will be $1.5 million in 2007-2008 and rise until it hits $2 million in 2013-2014. There also is an incentive package that could be worth as much as $235,000 every year.
Howland, 50, who is from Santa Barbara, has said repeatedly since arriving at UCLA from Pittsburgh that there is no other place he'd rather be coaching. "This has always been my dream job," Howland said in a statement.
