This is the time of year when Fresno State President John Welty usually reviews the contract of athletic director Thomas Boeh.

If the past is any indication, Boeh almost certainly will get a one-year extension on the five-year contract he signed in 2005. He got a one-year rollover in July 2006 and another in July 2007.

A year ago this month, Welty wrote Boeh:

“Dear Thomas:

“I write to confirm the extension of your employment agreement until June 30, 2012.

“Thank you for your hard work and dedication. I look forward to continuing to work with you to improve the Fresno State athletic program.

“Sincerely,

“John D. Welty.”
