IOWA CITY, Iowa -- Kirk Ferentz has a new contract that will likely keep him with Iowa through the rest of his career.Iowa announced Tuesday that it has signed Ferentz to a six-year contract extension through the 2025 season.Ferentz, who is in his 18th season leading the Hawkeyes, will see his salary jump to $4.5 million per year under the new deal, with performance bonuses yet to be detailed.Ferentz said he doesnt consider early 2026, which is when his contract ends, to be the end date on his tenure in Iowa City.Im not big on caps of any sort. Well just take it week by week and year by year, said Ferentz. Ive never felt better, physically and mentally.Ferentzs last contract, which was for 10 years at roughly $40 million, was set to expire in early 2020. Ferentzs massive buyout was subject to scrutiny under his previous deal, but a series of changes made by Ferentz -- earning him the nickname New Kirk -- led to a 12-2 season and a trip to the Rose Bowl.Athletic director Gary Barta said that the buyout in Ferentzs new deal is similar to the previous one, though he didnt offer further specifics.My desire is for Kirk to retire at Iowa, Barta said.Ferentz and Oklahoma Bob Stoops are the nations longest-tenured coaches, having been hired within days of each other in 1999. What is remarkable about Iowas decision to retain Ferentz until the middle of the next decade is that, just 18 months ago, many Hawkeyes fans wanted to see him fired.Iowa stumbled through a 7-6 season in 2014, capped by an embarrassing loss to Tennessee in a bowl game. Ferentz was never at risk of losing his job -- partly because of a buyout that wouldve cost the Hawkeyes well over $10 million -- but he promised to take a fresh look at how he ran his program anyway.Ferentz unexpectedly promoted quarterback C.J. Beathard ahead of successful incumbent Jake Rudock ahead of spring practice in 2015. Rudock left for Michigan, but Beathard blossomed into a star in leading the Hawkeyes to a school-record 12-0 start. The Hawkeyes embraced trick plays and alternate uniforms last season, things the once-conservative Ferentz shied away from in the past.Ferentz has also gone away from his propensity to redshirt as many freshmen as possible, playing six of them in last weeks 45-21 win over Miami (Ohio) to open the season.What stands out about coach Ferentz is his ability to bounce back, said cornerback Desmond King, whose relationship with Ferentz play a role in his decision to return for his senior season. Hes very resilient.Ferentz and his staff have ramped up recruiting efforts as well. The Hawkeyes, bolstered by a new football-only facility that rivals any in the country, currently have a top-20 class lined up for signing day in February.Any time you demonstrate stability ... thats a good thing, Ferentz said.Ferentz will surpass Hayden Fry, who he worked with for years as an assistant, as the longest-tenured coach in Iowa history if he stays through the end of his new deal. Fry coached for 20 seasons at Iowa.There were two great coaches here, (Ferentz) and (Hayden) Fry. Hes an amazing coach, an amazing guy to look up to. He does all the small things right, linebacker Josey Jewell said.---Follow Luke Meredith on Twitter at www.twitter.com/LukeMeredithAP

Miller had a pair of run-scoring doubles and a key defensive play, helping the Cincinnati Reds to a 6-5 victory over Bartolo Colon and the slumping Oakland Athletics. Jay Bruce hit a two-run homer and a run-scoring grounder for Cincinnati, which won consecutive games for the first time since July 24 in San Francisco and July 25 in Los Angeles. Joey Votto had two hits and Zack Cozart scored twice. Miller has spent most of the season with Triple-A Louisville. He could be headed back to the minors soon with Ryan Hanigan on his way back from a wrist injury. With sons Caden, 8, and Chase, 5, in town for the Reds family game, Miller increased his total to five RBIs in 14 games this season. "It was fun looking up and seeing them," Miller said. AL West-leading Oakland, which began the day with a one-game advantage over Texas, scored as many runs as it had in its previous three games, but still lost for the sixth time in seven games. Colon (14-4) was knocked out in the third inning in his shortest outing of the season. The All-Star right-hander, who was pitching on six days rest but weakened by a stomach virus, had made 15 consecutive starts of at least six innings and three or fewer earned runs. "Bartolo didnt have his best stuff," manager Bob Melvin said. "His velocity was down a little bit. He had a stomach virus in the bullpen. Hes had it before but worked through it." "Its no excuse," Colon said. "I pitched bad. I wasnt throwing strikes like I did before the All-Star game. The velocity was down a little, but it is no excuse. I dont need to rest. The way the team hit today, I believe we can win. If they keep hitting like that we will win." Millers first run-scoring double gave Cincinnati a 2-1 lead in the second inning. The Reds added three more in the third, with Bruce going deep for the second straight game and Miller driving in Cozart for the second time on the day. Colon allowed five runs and seven hits in 2 2-3 innings. He was 3-0 with a 1.57 ERA in his previous five starts, including a four-hitter in a 6-0 victory at the Los Angeles Angels on July 21. Homer Bailey (7-10) won his second straight start despite allowing nine hits and five runs in 5 1-3 innings. "They put the bat on the ball pretty well," he said. "You saw it last niight with Mat (Latos).dddddddddddd He didnt get a lot of strikeouts. When you put it into play, things happen." Bailey left with a runner on third, but Manny Parra wriggled out of the jam. Parra, Sam LeCure and J.J. Hoover combined for 2 2-3 innings of two-hit ball before Aroldis Chapman tossed a perfect ninth for his 27th save in 31 opportunities. Josh Donaldson and Eric Sogard had two hits and two RBIs apiece for Oakland, which finished with 11 hits. Donaldson hit a solo drive in the second for his 17th homer. Stephen Vogt singled in a run in the fourth for the As, but Bruce made a perfect throw to cut down Alberto Callaspo trying to score from second on the base hit to right. "I always expect them to go," Bruce said. "When you dont, thats when youre caught off guard and look like an idiot." Callaspo left with a left forearm contusion. The Reds originally reported that Miller had a right quad contusion, but he said after the game he banged knees with Callaspo. He still caught one more inning. "Catchers are football players," Reds manager Dusty Baker said. "Theyre tough. I wish everybody was a tough as they are." Oakland also had Sogard retired in a rundown off third in the sixth. Bruce jumped on the first pitch he saw in the third, sending a long drive into the netting above the visitors bullpen down the right-field line. The one-out shot came with Votto aboard after a leadoff single. It was Bruces team-leading 24th homer. He also is second on the Reds to Brandon Phillips with 78 RBIs. NOTES: Sogard extended his hitting streak to 13 games. ... The Reds activated RHP Jonathan Broxton from the 15-day disabled list and optioned RHP Pedro Villareal to Triple-A Louisville. Broxton had been on the DL since June 15 with a strained right elbow. ... Oakland LHP Brett Anderson, out since May 1 with a sprained right ankle, is expected to pitch a simulated game Saturday. He threw 31 pitches with Single-A Stockton on Tuesday. ... Melvin planned on Tuesday to have Derek Norris start at catcher on Wednesday, but days off on Monday and Thursday prompted him to stick with his usual lineup against right-handed starters, which includes Vogt at catcher. ... Reds 3B Todd Frazier batter second for the first time in his career. He went 0 for 3 with a walk and was hit by a pitch while extending his career-worst slide to 0 for 31. Its the longest hitless slump by a Reds position player since Drew Stubbs was 0 for 32 in 2012. ' ' '
