FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — TCU coach Jamie Dixon is getting a contract extension through the 2027-28 season after leading his alma mater to its first NCAA Tournament victory in 35 years.

TCU was coming off Dixon's first losing record in 18 seasons as a head coach. The Horned Frogs finished 21-13. They are 117-84 in six seasons under Dixon.
