    Richmond men's basketball coach Chris Mooney has signed a 10-year contract extension with the Spiders after leading them to the Sweet 16.

    "I was anxious to get something done and the school was anxious to get something done, so it was kind of pretty smooth," Mooney said in a telephone interview after the deal was announced.
