[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 512093, member: 2299"] Neither of the situations are similar People complained about Hewitt's contract not because of any extension but because of the clause that created an automatic rollover. People complained about Johnson's extension because it came after missing a bowl game. It was timing, not length. Collins is getting 7 years because there will be pretty much a guaranteed transition period that means he wouldn't be fired in less than 5 years regardless due to inheriting a bad defense, bad special teams, and transitioning the offense. That point is heightened by the fact that this hire was a large part about building a brand and increasing recruiting. So a 5 year contract would probably just see a 2 year extension after year 2 or 3 anyways so it makes sense to go 7. [/QUOTE]
