Northwestern extends Walker's contract through 2011
Evanston, IL (Sports Network) - Northwestern head football coach Randy Walker had his contract extended through the 2011 season. He was previously inked through the 2007 campaign.
Walker, who joined the Wildcats in 1999 after a successful nine-year tenure at Miami-Ohio, earned an initial extension after leading the Wildcats to a share of the 2000 Big Ten championship.
"I'm really pleased that we were able to reach an agreement with Randy on a contract extension," said athletic director Mark Murphy. "I have tremendous respect for the way he runs the program."
Walker has 37 wins at Northwestern, which ranks second on the school's all-time list. He is the first Northwestern coach to engineer three different teams to the postseason.
Northwestern went 7-5 overall last season, including 5-3 in the Big Ten.
