Keating gets extended

Santa Clara Coach Kerry Keating has just received a multi-year contract extension.

This is fascinating. What if the Broncos braintrust had replaced Keating after the 8-22, 0-16 2011-12 season? It was his fourth losing season in five years. Then he goes back to being an assistant for a period of time before getting another head coaching opportunity. Instead, he's secure for the next few seasons, paid reasonably well and hopefully continues his ascent in the coaching ranks. This should make coaches really, really think about who will be their AD, in addition to all the other factors, when considering a position running a program.
