From @bobs328: what do you think of the Kingsbury hire and tubs departure?

As fractured as the Texas Tech fan base had been during the Tommy Tuberville era and as much drama as the Red Raiders fans have been through (including the debacle that was the Billy Gillespie era of Tech basketball), AD Kirby Hocutt couldn't pass up hiring Kliff Kingsbury. Clemson OC Chad Morris, a Texas native, is a really good head coaching candidate, but Tech simply couldn't afford to pass on Kingsbury for him or Jerry Gray. Not now.

I know Kingsbury's only 33 and that just three years ago was making less than $20,000 as a quality control assistant at Houston, but he'd emerged as the hottest assistant in college football this year.

In West Texas a decade ago, Kingsbury was a record-setting Red Raider quarterback and now he is coming back home as a folk hero.
