Holgersen would be an upgrade from Kliff but why would you hire someone that averages 5 losses a season in the same conference?

He’s probably got several school age children in the area. Could be nice to get back for a bit and see their mamas. Or maybe not.

Please take him. Even better if you take Spavital and Gibson off our hands too.

Uh have you been to either? It’s Lubbock by far. Morgantown is beautiful and close to a lot on the east coast. Pittsburgh is just over an hour away for example.

Lubbock is an ugly shithole in the middle of nowhere.

Don’t think Dana is interested tbh. He has a pretty sweet gig at WV. Realistic expectations, a good support system for him personally as well at good fan support and as an administration that has proven it wants to win.

The pirate burnt every bridge in Lubbock on his way out of town. Can’t imagine either party would be able to stomach the other for long.

That sucks.

But to be fair, think they both suck.

Would like to see Leach stay and Kliff head out to Wazzu

No. This sucks:

268 miles to Fort Worth, TX
279 miles to Arlington, TX
282 miles to Oklahoma City, OK
295 miles to El Paso, TX
295 miles to Albuquerque, NM
295 miles to Juarez, Mexico
295 miles to Ciudad Juarez, Mexico
329 miles to Austin, TX
346 miles to San Antonio, TX

Those are the distances from Lubbock to the nearest major cities.

And it’s ugly and flat. Morgantown is a beautiful city in the mountains.

I spoke to Mike Leach last night and he said he isn't interested in returning to Texas Tech. "They didn’t pay me last time. And I’m happy here.” Asked to elaborate, he said: "They haven’t paid me for 2009 and we won 9 games that year. And they haven’t won 9 games since."
