The extension was mind boggling
No, not really. I think most coaches tend to get an active contract long enough to convince players that they will be around for their entire career.
I heard that his buyout wasn't affected at all, meaning that the extra years won't increase the amount that is owed to him if we were to fire him.
Because of that, I don't mind the extension to much. I've seen too many times where AD's overreact to one good year and give a coach way too much (see Paul Hewitt). The newish AD has acknowledged that the AA hasn't supported the football program as much as our neighboring rivals have (assistant coaches' salaries, number of people/analysts in the recruiting office, etc). We are building a new locker room, we are hiring more recruiting support, and our AD is supposedly working with the school to make things easier.
All that to say, our AD is trying and I wouldn't mind seeing what Johnson could do with a little more help.

10 yrs averaging barely over 6 wins is worth seeing what he could do with a little more help?
Don’t get me wrong I hope he’s there forever but I’m surprised tech fans aren’t demanding more. The few I know weren’t happy with the extension
