Holgorson agrees with UH

Two names to watch for Dana's OC at Houston Graham Harrell and Doug Meacham

Buying their way up, but needing a Groupon. 

[Mean Green Matt]

Interesting that it seems like WVU didn’t really want Dana anymore.

[Salsa_Verde]

So quick to pat each other on the back, I guess. Time will tell if this was a good hire.

Hopefully he has better luck at Houston than west Virginia. He would have been fired 6 of the 8 years if UH Admin would have been in WV.

I think it might be questionable Graham Harrell going to Houston. He's gaining valuable experience at UNT but he ain't there yet. Maybe next year when the offense doesn't stutter so much in the 2nd half of games and maybe somebody steps up for the O-line. 

But some of his play calling this year was at least questionable.

Please, take GH. 

[outoftown]

Very int4erested to see how this one will go. This one can really go any of several ways in my mind.

[NM Green]

Littrell just increased his opportunities exponentially.  Thank you Houston.

Littrell and company come out and dismantle the Coogs and holgerson in September and it looks great on Littrell’s resume. The only gig I want Seth leaving for is Oklahoma or State. Other than that build the Beast and slay more giants.

They didn't want him and he didn't want them. WVA didn't want to pay out his contract and he was having a hard time finding anyone to pay the buy out. Houston decided to do it on the cheap by waiting to officially announce until the buy outamount drops.

This happened only because WVU wanted this to happen, not UH. So, yes, still delusional. Maybe more so now. 

[Wag Tag]

 WOW 5yrs $20m guaranteed !!!! P5 money big time. 

G5 coaches salaries are going up!

[emmitt01]

So, let me see if I have this straight.  

A coach with generally middling success, and a few positive spikes in record, decides he wants to leave his job and the employer decides they’d like him gone as well...except there is a lot of money still owed.  

So a “P6” school with more money than good sense comes along and money whips a guy who really had no competitive market for his services to solve both the coach and the former employer’s headache.  

Sure, sounds like a home run all around 😆😆😆😆

[MeanGreenTexan]

Holgorsen is a great coach.  Good hire for Houston.

Life was much easier for him in the Big LEast. Maybe the AAC will be like coming home for him.

I wish we had Houston earlier in the schedule but September 28 can't come soon enough for me.

In your opinion, how much of a possibility is this? Would they actually come after GH? would he leave?

who would be some possible replacements for GH?

[southsideguy]

CQ I have a question why are not you not on the Cougar board celebrating with your fellow fans?  They chase you away?  Seems like you spend way to much time over here.  Come back on game week if you like but give it a rest.  If you need a second home I bet UTSA would love to have you.

Apple available!

 

[Green Mean]

Whether this is a great hire or not long term time will certainly tell but the fact that Houston shelled out $4 million a season on their head coach certainly looks good perception wise especially to other P5 conferences if/when they want to rethink realignment and add schools.

Holgorsen gonna make Littrell look like a clown

Is Seth gonna fail out of the North Texas coaching job, get the Houston Community College job, and then spend all his time over here thumping his chest?  

If so, then he is ABSOLUTELY gonna look like a 🤡

Was it Rumored GH was going to WV as OC? The money they are paying Hol I am sure the Asst $$ budget has been raised a lot ! Double GH salary and he could be gone.
