Houston has to make the call.  Art Briles.  It's the perfect time. We have a walking, lying, molesting, traitorous moron as president and most of the idiots in this state bend over to take h

There's nothing political about it. Everything there is verifiably true and a statement of fact with more evidence to back it up than the law of gravity itself.

This is the truth.  My daughter thought about going there, but we didn't want her anywhere near that mess.

We had the same thing, only with Baylor.

I guess I'm in line to get punched by their woman's basketball coach!

This makes the big 12 look bad

Straight cash homey is understandable, no matter what the extenuating circumstances might be.

 

WVU has been on the outs with Holgorsen for a few years now.  This is a win for them too, in their BMDs; minds.

ORlando to WVU ?

would wvu hire a coach with no hc experience ?

Could Mike Elko who coached at Wake Forest be a possibility??  Probably need an Offensive type of HC though to succeed in West Virginia. 

Maybe a regional east coast Head Coach might be looking to upgrade to a P5 job..... Needs to be a Hell of a recruiter.  

Would laugh if "The Pirate" went there.... West Virginia fans would probably love that.....

They just traded an 8-9 win a year coach for a 9-10 win a year coach

 

 

solid

Holgo has a better pedigree and track record as a coach than Major. It is an upgrade for UH. It just sucks that Major didn’t get a 3rd season to improve.

He needed to cash in now because he only won 8 games with a loaded roster this year. He was looking at a 5-6 win season next year if he stayed at WVU. I’m just surprised it was Houston who threw all of that money at him.

Cougar high is more like and insta thot that makes you think she’s fucking hot because she flaunts her body, but without the makeup and camera angles and other window dressing, isn’t anything special, all while having zero personality and nothing of substance yet thinking she deserves all the attention. 

Good analogy

Tech should have money whipped Holgerson.  He is much better than the guy they got and would have stayed there for years.

I don't think Tech even needed to money whip him to get him.  I think we could've had him with a deal as good or slightly better than what he was getting at WVU, but Hocutt didn't want him.

Holcutt is an idiot. He’s been ruining Tech football for years. He wants someone to kiss his ring. He doesn’t give a shit about wins 

He's only hired one football coach at Tech, and that was the guy 99% of the fanbase wanted.  He had nothing to do with firing Leach or hiring Tuberville - he wasn't at Tech for either of those decisions.  Considering that Hocutt hired the best baseball and men's bball coaches we've ever had, I'm optimistic about Matt Wells.

Like many others, I, too, am baffled by Holgorsen's move to Coog High. The only thing that makes sense is that most would rather live in Houston than Morgantown. But that's really all I've got.

Not sure why this is shocking. Holgo was on the host seat last year and underachieved this year. He's jumping ship while he still has options. 

Not to mention they are giving him $4 million a year at Houston. 

Coaching is all about coaching stability. He buys at least a couple more years at Houston while getting more money.

West Virginia is a rebuild again after Grier.

Also.....Part of Holgy's desire for UH is a better recruiting rich area (7x7) where he knows he has a greater opportunity to put together more talented teams than he could at West Virginia.  Juco's and the grad transfers were necessities to survive in recruiting for WVU..... that's a hard route for consistency year to year.

Lol. Apparently Houston thinks they should announce their new HC hire tonight right before the Sugar Bowl in order to steal our thunder. Pathetic.

 

It's the Sugar bowl between Texas and UGA nobody gives a fuck about what UH is going to be doing.

Girlfriend is from there, he still owns a home there, kids from his previous marriage live there, friends with Ferititta, would rather recruit in Texas, blah blah.  There's lots of reasons, all good for Dana.

Maybe they weren’t trying to steal our thunder with their pre sugar bowl announcement but trying to coat tail on Texas/Georgia’s audience drawing clout.

Yup. The Fertittas would have someone whacked in a heartbeat just to get a mention as breaking news before the Texas Longhorns play.

I'm often amazed at how much Texas is in the heads of programs like Houston and aggy. 

 

We have huge a&m threads on this site. The feeling seems mutual wrt a&m, at least.

I don't understand the move for Holgo but $20 million.

you are talking about a random fan website vs. the actual AD/univ.  we only comment on Houston when they can't build a fucking safe set of bleachers.  Aggy we don't comment on unless asked.

Holgo probably angling for the Baylor job when Rhule leaves or maybe arkansas.
