"Jeff has been the right fit for the Army West Point football team since his arrival and this extension is a natural progression." Army athletic director Boo Corrigan said. "In addition to building a winning program on the field, Jeff and his staff, including our Officer Representatives, believe strongly in the academy's larger mission of developing leaders of character to lead the U.S. Army. We're excited that Jeff will continue to lead our football program in the years to come."
The Black Knights are coming off their first bowl appearance in six seasons, a victory over North Texas in the Zaxby's Heart of Dallas Bowl.
Prior to the bowl victory, Monken also guided Army to its first win over rival Navy since 2001.
