After a stellar debut season, BYU coach Kevin Young was rewarded with a long-term contract extension, the school announced on Thursday.

Details of the agreement, including length of the deal and monetary value, were not disclosed. According to a news release, the extension “will keep Young in Provo for the foreseeable future.”

“My family and I have loved our first year at BYU, being surrounded by great people, at a great university with shared values,” Young said in a statement. “I’m excited to continue to build a program based on trying to help young men prepare for the NBA, win at the highest level and do it at BYU.”

Young guided the Cougars to a 26-10 record in 2024-25 and an appearance in the Sweet 16 — BYU’s first since 2011. It also marked the Cougars’ most wins in a season since 2016.

Such success sets up high expectations for BYU next season, especially after the Cougars landed the country’s top overall prospect in A.J. Dybantsa, a 6-foot-9 small forward who could be the No. 1 overall pick in the NBA draft.

Behind Dybantsa, BYU boasted the No. 13-ranked recruiting class for 2025, according to ESPN.
