[QUOTE="Volatility_rivals135605, post: 132146295, member: 1476288"] Houston fires Holgorsen.... Houston has a massive donor base, and has shown to quickly move on from a coach, whereas WVU is usually more patient. If you go to many of the Cougar boards they are already calling for it in Houston... Last year did buy him a bit more time, but shoot man they fired the other coach for winning 10 games, haha.. I suppose it depends how they do in their conference this year. I havent researched their strength of schedule this year, but in general I think if Brown manages to win 7+ games this year, we should be a 10+ win team next year(if JTD stays for a second year & Considering our roster), which will put most fans at ease and buy Brown a couple more years... They may keep Holgorsen until after their first year in the Big12.... Because hes so familiar with that process & the league... So he can sell them on why hes the best option for that introductory year/process... I dont think however hell last after the first year in the Big12.... I think Houston will be a bottom feeder for the first few years at least. Out of all the new BIg12 programs, Houston has by far the biggest improvement to make before they are Big12 / P5 ready... If Brown wins less than 7 games this year, I think Shane will still give him 1 more year. Simply due to his contract buyout, and it would make it easier for us to pay it and find a quality replacement. That said...... Who would you hire to replace Brown? Its not good enough to just fire someone, you need a logical justification to who you could realistically afford to get that would be a better option. Hugh Freeze would probably be my top pick. As long as our Country Roads Trust could promise $2-3mill+ per year for NIL... Which I think would be enough to get the base talent needed for Hugh to be successful. [/QUOTE]
