The news is meant to squash speculation that Golden would leave the Miami Hurricanes to take over for his alma mater, Penn State.
Miami athletic director Shawn Eichorst released a statement:
"I look forward to working side by side with Coach Golden for many years. Al has done a fantastic job of rebuilding and solidifying the foundation of our football program while fostering success both on and off of the field. He has been a first-class representative of our University and I am confident that with Al leading the way, our future is very bright."
The extension was announced during the fourth quarter of the Miami - Boston College game at Sun Life Stadium.
