Otzelberger agreed to a 10-year contract extension on Wednesday that will pay him  million annually. He is now under contract until June 30, 2036.  Otzelberger guided the Cyclones to their third Sweet 16 appearance in the NCAA Tournament over the past five seasons in 2025-26. Iowa State finished with a 29-8 record, tying for the second-most wins in program history.  “Coach Otzelberger has elevated our men’s basketball program into a perennial NCAA Tournament and Top 25 team. This contract extension demonstrates Iowa State University’s commitment to him by making him one of the highest paid basketball coaches in the country,” athletic director Jamie Pollard said. “We are excited to reward him for the success we have enjoyed during his first five years leading the Cyclones and we look forward to continued success under his leadership.”  Iowa State has earned five straight NCAA Tournament bids under Otzelberger, who was hired in March 2021 after the program went 2-22 in 2020-21. The Cyclones are 124-53 overall in five seasons with Otzelberger at the helm.   “I’m thankful for the support of our President, Dr. (David) Cook and our athletics director, Jamie Pollard,” Otzelberger said. “We are humbled and grateful to continue leading a program that means so much to us. Iowa State is home for my family, and we are excited to be part of the community for years to come.”  Otzelberger, 48, is 223-116 in 10 seasons with South Dakota State (2016-19), UNLV (2019-21) and Iowa State. He also took South Dakota State to the NCAA Tournament on two occasions (2017, 2018).  –Field Level Media   #Deadspin #Iowa #States #T.J #Otzelberger #agrees #10year #extensionMar 26, 2026; Chicago, IL, USA; Iowa State Cyclones head coach T.J.

  • Inter Milan could be crowned Serie A champion before it even kicks a ball against Parma on Sunday.

    Cristian Chivu’s side has a 10-point lead over second-placed Napoli and is 12 points ahead of AC Milan, with four rounds remaining.

    A home win against Parma on Sunday night would guarantee Inter the title. A point could also be enough, depending on the results of Napoli and Milan.

    But Inter could seal the title even before kick-off at San Siro if Napoli loses at Champions League-chasing Como on Saturday and Milan fails to beat Sassuolo about four hours before Inter’s match.

    It would be a first managerial trophy for Chivu, whose only previous senior coaching experience before the Inter job was a 13-match spell in charge of Parma at the end of last season.

    Inter could also win the league and cup double as it faces Lazio in the Italian Cup final on May 13.

    Behind Inter, the battle for the other three Champions League qualifying spots is heating up.

    Fourth-placed Juventus is only three points above Como and Roma. Juve also trails third-placed Milan by three points.

    Juventus hosts relegation-threatened Hellas Verona on Sunday, while Roma welcomes Fiorentina on Monday.

    At the other end of the table, Pisa will be mathematically relegated if it fails to beat Lecce, which occupies the final safety spot in Serie A.

    Cremonese is just one point behind Lecce and hosts Lazio on Monday. Verona is also in the relegation zone, 10 points adrift of Lecce.

    Milan midfielder Luka Modric will miss the final four rounds after breaking his cheekbone against Juventus last weekend. The Croatia captain, who has been one of Milan’s best players, underwent surgery on Monday and faces a race to recover for the World Cup.
