I've made it no secret that I believe in what GA is doing, and the players seem to respond to him very positively. Still, he had 4 years left on his contract. His extension is only for one more year, but it'll be interesting to see if they restructured the other parts to his contract. Clearly President Ray believes in GA. I would imagine that without an AD, that he would have had to approve this.
Could it be that Scott Barnes WON'T be the next AD, and this was OSU's way of informing GA not to be worried about who his next boss will be?

Huh. Pretty premature IMO. I like him, but geez, have some patience. SOP for a 1 year contract extension heading into year 3 of a 3 year deal. Hey the contract is running out, gotta do something. But another 4 years seems like big ink.

I just find it funny that those who thought automatic extensions for bowling was ridiculous now find a CW win and 4-8 / 6-18 worthy. Expecially when the extra year is worth two of the previous extensions in terms of $ not counting if any assts $ are involved.

But another 4 years seems like big ink. I think this is part of the big problem in college football. Fear of losing a potentially winning coach forces a premature extension, then maybe later after actual success another one. Years later things deteriorate for whatever reason. Now the school is saddled with a huge buyout it can't afford to make a change. Bad business. And although I like him, make no mistake that the football program has not been successful in the last two years, whatever the reason.

Lets just say that a few on this site alone are in that group.

But another 4 years seems like big ink. The original contract was for six years. A one-year extension seems unusual, but it keeps him at five years. Having said that, I note that CGA signed a one-year contract extension in 2012 with Utah State and quit less than 3 months later. CGA signed a one-year contract extension in 2014 with Wisconsin and quit less than 11 months later. Seems to be his thing.

Dear lord without reading the contract or knowing what the terms are, why the overreaction, or any reaction at all. This is nothing more than a pat on the back to Anderson and staff, and maybe not so much for what is happening on the field but off it too. From what I understand CGA was burning the midnight oil the last few weeks of the season spending as much time at Good Samaritan as he did on campus. That's the type of stuff that ingrains you in the community, your players, your future recruits, your own family.
If it makes you feel better, the Rams signed Jeff Fisher to a 2-year extension this summer then promptly fired him 10 games later. An extension these days means little to the big picture of retaining or firing a coach.
I don't pay much mind to coaching contracts until it gets down to 1 or 2 years, and how the school/franchise responds under those terms.

As a fairly VOCAL critic of GA, mostly because his OFFENSE sucks and he hadn't yet really recruited any better than RILEY, BUT I don't have a huge issue with extending him out another year.
He and his staff looks to be turning the corner, at least in JUCO recruits which is something that Riley NEVER embraced, (he wanted 4 year guys) but I think was a huge part of why the OLINE and LB had 3 year stretches were they really sucked.
This a big deal in recruiting (coach contract as long a potential schollie), which is why OSU had to do it for Mike Riley and we would have to do it with just about any coach.
BUT, if I was Ray I would have weaseled some words in there about the buyout, basically making year 5 a OSU option or the buyout at a significantly REDUCED cost.
