The highest paid coach in softball has now surpassed herself.
Oklahoma Coach Patty Gasso received a contract extension through 2028 Friday that will pay her an average of $2 million annually. The Hall of Fame Coach had made $1.775 million annually on her previous deal.
Gasso will be in her 31st season leading the Sooners this spring and has guided the program to a 1,515-352-2 record. She has won eight National Championships, having secured OU’s fourth in a row in 2024.
