South Dakota State University and head football coach John Stiegelmeier have agreed to terms on a five-year contract extension that will keep the longtime Jackrabbit mentor on the sidelines through the 2023 season.
"John has done an incredible job in building the Jackrabbit football program into one of the best in the Football Championship Subdivision year in and year out," SDSU Director of Athletics Justin Sell said. "The program has been a model of consistency not only in winning on the field, but in areas like academics, character and community service. That culture is unique and something I know our fan base is proud of."
In 22 seasons at SDSU, Stiegelmeier has compiled a 158-99 career record, posting a winning record 18 times, including 13 of 15 seasons at the Division I level. The Jackrabbits are making their second consecutive FCS semifinal appearance and have qualified for postseason play seven years in a row and eight times in 10 seasons.
