ASU head coach Kenny Dillingham has led the football team to a successful season, but now the coaching market is heating up after Indiana coach Curt Cignetti signed an extension worth $8 million per year for the next eight years. Dillingham, who signed a contract for $3.85 million annually in 2022, may be looking for a raise as well. However, Dillingham is focused on his assistants, players, and NIL opportunities for the team’s success.
Dillingham emphasized the importance of senior day for players, noting the changing landscape of college football eligibility. He wants players to be sure of their decisions before walking on senior day, preventing any potential confusion about returning for another season. Among players with decisions to make, graduate senior offensive lineman Ben Coleman has one more season of eligibility, and a decision on whether to use it will come soon.
ASU will face off against BYU in their home finale on Saturday, with Dillingham highlighting the significance of the game and the decisions players have to make about their future. The game will be broadcast on 98.7 FM, the Arizona Sports app, and ArizonaSports.com. Overall, Dillingham’s focus remains on the team’s success and the opportunities for growth both on and off the field.
