After one season as the University of Pittsburgh's head football coach, Pat Narduzzi received a two-year contract extension Thursday.
The school announced that two years will be added to his original five-year pact, which means he is currently in line to be the Panthers' head man through at least 2021.
After the extension was made official, Pittsburgh athletic director Scott Barnes praised the job Narduzzi did in his first year at the helm:
Pat Narduzzi has adrenalized Pitt football on and off the field. We are proud of what our program has accomplished this season.
