The 2-year extension of Chris Petersen's contract at Washington signals Scott Woodward's optimism around the direction of the program.
While today is technically Thanksgiving, Christmas may have come a little early for both Chris Petersen and Washington Husky football fans everywhere. It was announced this morning that Petersen and the University of Washington have agreed to a two-year contract extension.
The new extension will add two more years to the current five year deal that Petersen signed in late 2013. Barring a voluntary separation somewhere along the line, Petersen is now locked in to guide the Huskies football program through 2020.
