    Key is 18-15 overall in two seasons at his alma mater and led Georgia Tech to back-to-back bowl games for the first time in a decade. The Yellow Jackets went 7-5 this season, including an eight-overtime, 44-42 loss to rival Georgia last week.

    “I am so proud and grateful to work with incredible coaches, staff and student-athletes every single day and to represent the Georgia Tech community as its head football coach,” Key said in a statement. “Together, we’re building something special and I’m looking forward to continuing to work to return Tech football to where it belongs.”

    The Georgia Tech board also approved a five-year contract for athletic director J Batt that, as with Key, extends his stay at the school through 2029.
