Georgia has given contract extensions to football coach Kirby Smart and athletic director Josh Brooks, announcing both on Thursday afternoon, a message of alignment between the school and its powerful football program.

Smart received a two-year extension through Dec. 2033 and a $1.75 million raise. He will make $13 million per year, with bonuses up to $1.55 million.

“I continue to be grateful and humbled by our administration’s commitment to our football program,” Smart said. “The current culture in collegiate athletics is everchanging and as challenging as it has ever been, so I truly appreciate the leadership that our team is continually provided. I have an immense pride for representing my alma mater and look forward to that relationship continuing for many years to come.”

In announcing Smart’s extension, Brooks listed the performance of his teams, along with the 63 draft picks during his first eight seasons.

“I’m sure you will agree with me that his leadership of our program has been tremendous. This new contract is well deserved,” Brooks said.

After winning the national championship two years ago, Smart signed a 10-year contract in 2021 that totaled $112.5 million, At the time, it made Smart the highest-paid coach in college football, but Alabama’s Nick Saban and then Clemson’s Dabo Swinney signed new deals that slightly surpassed it.

Saban has retired, but Swinney is due to earn $11.5 million this year, a little more than Smart’s previous deal called for this year. In the two years since Smart signed his previous deal, Georgia won a second straight national championship, then went 13-1, losing in the SEC Championship Game and missing the College Football Playoff.
