You very seldom see a power 5 conference to a mid level school

He was likely gone at the end of the next season anyway. Got out while he could and it helps both teams. I believe he has a home in Houston as well.

He’s jumping off a sinking ship. WVU will be lucky to win 6 next year.

He got a $2m pay raise to go back to a city where he has a full time residence.

Not surprised to see him leave WVU, just surprised to see him land in Houston.

Dana loved to get wasted at lizards back in the earlier days in Houston

Outside opinion of Dana.

So a question to the non-wvu, non-houston, non-Okie State, and non-Texas Tech guys.

Do you actually think he is good? His claim to fame is winning an orange bowl with another guy's players and beating Texas a few times during one of their worst stretches in history.

Cougar High is probably one of the top mid-major athletic departments and WVU is probably one of the bottom power 5 departments.

I think he and WVU were kind of over each other. A lot of the fanbase was starting to turn on him.

He gets a new start at a school he has experience at. I think this is a win-win.

I was always under the impression that he didn’t really love it there. I remember him ripping the fans for not showing up to whatever game it was after LSU in 2011 and said basically “look at LSU they had 90,000 in the stands for Kentucky, that’s a real program”

It shows how unattractive a job WVU is.

Dana savvy as hell to get out of there.

I don't think Dana is going to produce what Fertitta is demanding either. 2 years tops.
