Big 12 commissioner Brett Yormark has received a three-year contract extension, the league announced Tuesday. The Big 12's Board of Directors voted to extend Yormark's contract through the 2029-30 academic year.

The Big 12 board of directors has agreed to a contract extension for conference commissioner Brett Yormark, sources briefed confirmed to The Athletic on Tuesday. The three-year extension will run through 2030 and extends the original five-year contract Yormark signed when he was hired by the Big 12 in 2022.

It appears that after rumors circulated about Brett Yormark possibly returning to the NBA, he will remain in the Big 12 with a three-year extension.
