#7 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (10-1)

Ga. Tech adds a year to Johnson's contract

ATLANTA (AP) Georgia Tech coach Paul Johnson agreed Friday to a one-year extension of his contract, which now runs through 2016.

Johnson initially signed a seven-year contract worth about $11 million when he came from Navy before the 2008 season. The school gave him a new seven-year, $17.7 million deal after he led the Yellow Jackets to a surprising nine wins in his debut.

His second year has been even better. No. 7 Georgia Tech (10-1) has already clinched a spot in the Atlantic Coast Conference championship game, and the extension keeps Johnson's contract at the original length. (MORE)
