Illinois State football coach Brock Spack has agreed to a contract extension.
Spack, the winningest coach in ISU football history, is now signed through the 2027 season.
According to a copy of the contract obtained through a public records request, Spack's annual salary of $395,000 remains the same.
"Brock has been a pillar of success and consistency at Illinois State for 16 seasons and has raised the stature of our program nationally into one that has the chance to make the playoffs every season,” ISU athletics director Jeri Beggs said in a statement.
In 16 seasons, Spack has compiled a 111-74 [60%] record and has led the Redbirds to six NCAA playoff appearances and two Missouri Valley Football Conference championships.
The Redbirds advanced to the second round of the Football Championship Subdivision [FCS] last season, posting a 9-4 record.
“This extension goes beyond me — it is a testament to their belief in our collective success and the bright future we are building together. The investment they are making in our student-athletes, staff, and overall program is invaluable and speaks to their long-term commitment to excellence,” Spack said in a statement.
Spack also guided the Redbirds to their only FCS championship game appearance in 2015.
