The extension is based on what he has successfully built. Our administration believes that he has built a sustainable path to continuous improvement. Building a team off of development is in concept, and so far in practice, more sustainable than more flash in the pan approaches to building a program. He's taken one of the worst football programs historically and made it something fans can be proud of. New facilities, a renovated stadium, and a premier contract with one of the major apparel companies. He, and The rest of the department, have done a hell of a lot and I'm glad we are paying him for it.

- He also took a team from unranked to number 1 faster than any other in history.
- Held us at number 1 in the country in all 3 polls for 5 weeks, the first time we have ever been ranked number 1 in any poll.
- The first coach to win 3 consecutive top 10 opponents since like '83. I realize they didn't finish ranked that high, but it's still an impressive accomplishment, and some of their eventual decline has to be attributed to those games.

He is a good coach. I give him shite, of course, but anyone with a pulse can see that he is a good coach and has built a very solid foundation in Starkvegas.
