Montana State Bobcats Secure Coaching Continuity Through 2029-30

Coach Matt Logie’s contract extension reflects a strategic push for sustained success amid rising program momentum

Montana State University announced this week that head coach Matt Logie has agreed to a four‑year contract extension, locking him in through the 2029‑30 season. The deal underscores the administration’s confidence in Logie’s ability to sustain the Bobcats’ upward trajectory after a series of breakthrough campaigns.

A Commitment to Continuity

Under Logie’s guidance the program has compiled its most impressive records in recent memory, highlighted by an 18‑14 overall finish in 2025‑26 and a 12‑6 mark in the Big Sky Conference. The team captured its third straight Big Sky tournament title and secured a berth in the NCAA Tournament, while also achieving a program‑high NET ranking of 128th.

Key contributors such as Jed Miller, who earned unanimous first‑team All‑Big Sky honors, and Brandon Walker, named honorable‑mention, helped drive the squad’s success. The roster’s 100 percent retention of scholarship athletes reflects a deliberate focus on continuity, a factor praised by athletic director Leon Costello and university president Brock Tessman.

Looking Ahead

The upcoming 2026‑27 season will feature a blend of returning veterans, new transfers and freshmen, while Logie’s staff expands to build on the culture of stability. With the support of the university leadership, the Bobcats aim to translate their recent momentum into sustained championship contention.
