Jerry Sloan has officially signed an extension for the 11-12 season.

Sloan provided a verbal commitment to the Jazz in November and his recent signature was a mere formality.

"I'm sorry. They asked me a question and I tried to answer it," Sloan said. "[Reporters] had already talked about my contract some time ago." He added: "That's not a big deal. I don't worry about that. I might not be here — I might not be alive in two weeks."

Sloan will evaluate his final decision after the season is over.
