San Diego State rewards coach Fisher with 3-year extension

San Diego State coach Steve Fisher has signed a three-year contract extension that runs through the 2017-18 season.

Fisher is in the final year of a four-year contract extension he signed in 2011 that included a clause that his long-time assistant, Brian Dutcher, is the head-coach-in-waiting.

Hired prior to the 1999-2000 season, Fisher has revived a moribund program. SDSU has 10 20-win seasons and two 30-win seasons under Fisher and has made the NCAA tournament eight times, including two Sweet 16 appearances.
