"Dr. Machen and I believed in the leadership and direction of the football program this summer, and we made a decision to extend Coach Muschamp's contract an additional year this past August, prior to the start of the season,"

"The financial terms are unchanged, but he is now under contract for the University of Florida through the 2017 season."
