    No kidding. I saw a quote from the AD or school president saying that they will be elite in football again. Again?

      but on the TT side, it seems a tad risky. 15-23 the 3 years prior to this at USU. if i'm Texas Tech, i'd want to find somebody with a bit more sustained success. having said that, i hope it works out for both parties. Matt Wells seems like a good guy.
      I have a few coworkers who went to TT. My phone started to blow up during lunch. They all wanted the scoop.

      I told them I'm happy he's gone, and that he seems to be able to extract max effort and talent out of his kids.

      I also said that they'd better hope he is able to bring USU's S&C coach to Lubbock.

      Holes: recruiting. He's never coached close to Texas (that I can think of) and is going to have to hire some assistants who can sell TT.

      I think it's a good hire for Tech, but there's no guarantee. Scott Frost took a winless team and turned them undeafeated in one year, then coached the worst Nebraska team in decades the year after that.

        There was that one year when they beat UT.

          • I'm intrigued by this Kliff Kingsbury to USC rumor.

              as OC? because they did retain Helton, right? man, that would be quite a coup for USC to bring him in as OC. seems he's being approached by several other programs as well as NFL teams.

                Now if Colorado would hire Tedford we could have some order in the MW again. Seems like a bad hire for TT, I can't see him making a difference there.

                  It’s my understanding the options are somewhat limited when it comes to recruiting coaches to relocate to Lubbock.

                    I agree with this.

                      • I can’t believe we’re going to a conference title game with playoff on the line with no DC. This is a new low.

                          Going to get even lower in a couple of days!

                            No kidding. I can just see Tom and Sam trying to explain how they managed to lose to a team with no defense.

                              I thought Goldilocks said OU had no defense, so it shouldn't matter.
