GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Florida baseball coach Kevin O'Sullivan has signed a contract extension with the Gators that should keep him around for a long, long time.

The 47-year-old coach has led the Gators to the College World Series five times in his nine years in Gainesville, and Florida has rewarded him handsomely for sticking around after other high-profile jobs became available over the last two years. D1Baseball.com's Kendall Rogers reports that O'Sullivan signed an extension worth $1.25 million annually with a $500,000 signing bonus.

His deal now runs through 2025.

In addition to O'Sullivan's new deal, Florida also recently announced a comprehensive plan for about $100 million worth of facility upgrades that will also include a renovation for the baseball stadium.

In nine years at Florida, O'Sullivan has put together a 396-189 (.677) overall record and a 171-98 (.636) mark in SEC play. The Gators have won the SEC three times and the SEC Tournament twice under his watch.
