Between college and Pro, dude only had 3 winning seasons in 10 years and just one in his last 7 seasons. And he just signed an 5 year extension. How is this dude still employed as a HC?

Head coaching record:

8-5
4-8
7-6
5-7
6-7
5-7
5-10-1
8-8
11-6
4-7


And this is someone who had Patrick Mahomes as a QB for 3 years in college

Would love to see him in Tuscaloosa as OC next season. HC record aside, the man can coach some offense, especially with a roster like 'Bama's.

Someone is going to think "But you can't win at Texas Tech". Over the 25 years before he got to Tech they had 3 losing seasons.

Spinning a 5-7 final season at Texas Tech directly into an NFL head coaching job without any NFL coaching experience was pretty incredible

Sucks as a head coach but he’s winning at life. He’s 43, has made millions of dollars being a below average coach, dates models, could retire tomorrow & be a TV analyst or consultant. But yeah, he sucks.

comments like this are why people hate Bama fans. Kliff isn't coming to Bama as a fricking OC. He could get a number of P5 jobs if he were available.

You don’t get it, bro. He coached Mahomes in college.

6 years as a college head coach
0 years with a winning conference record

What jobs? He failed in his lone HC gig at a program with historically mediocre expectations. A resume of 8, 4, 7, 5, 6, and 5-win seasons is just not worthy of heavy P5 HC consideration.

While his offenses were good to great (Mahomes on Big 12 defenses helps), you can't spend 6 years as HC and not personally warrant heavy blame for consistently terrible defenses. Those were his staffs and his players.

Maybe a P5 or G5 program will give him a shot at HC but it's pretty clear that OC molding a QB is the correct role for him. He thrived at A&M with Manziel and USC had the right idea after Tech fired him, all the way up until the Cardinals said hold my beer

But Mahomes is winning in the NFL under a different HC, and Kliff as an NFL HC isn't winning without him.

Hence the joke. People ride Kliff’s jock because he coached Mahomes, probably the best player in the league today, in college. But won nothing.

Cause he is young looks the new age part and has fooled everyone into thinking he is some revolutionary mind in coaching. He isn’t

Still the most successful guy named Kliff I've ever heard of.

Arizona confused "Kliff" with "Kiff" and just gave him a job.
