Hamilton still waiting on extension

Last November, Florida State announced that head coach Leonard Hamilton would receive a two-year extension to his contract. Nearly three months later, Hamilton is still waiting for it to come to fruition.

The Seminoles are fighting to stay out of the ACC cellar in a year they were expected to make their first NCAA tournament appearance since 1998. While injuries, illness, suspension, and transfers have been cause for their underwhelming start, erratic play from veterans has also been a factor.

Through Tuesday night's game at Virginia Tech, FSU has an ACC record of 32-55 with Hamilton at the helm. They are a measly 7-37 on the road against conference foes.

While the program looks strong on the recruiting front, Hamilton's time just may run out before he can reap the rewards of his efforts.
