Emmert had previously been under contract until 2023, so his extension adds two years to his deal. The extension was also unanimously approved.
The NCAA has gone through some major changes recently, altering its Name, Image and Likeness policies and transfer rules over the course of the 2020-21 academic year. There have been plenty of shake-ups with the association, but Emmert is still serving in the role of president.
