I'm Proud of Coach Kingsbury

There can be a shortfall of ideas during the dog days of summer. This article isn’t earth-shattering, but deserves to be shared anyway. I simply want to say that I’m proud of the man who is at the helm of Texas Tech football.

During his time as a quarterback at Texas Tech, Kliff Kingsbury embodied everything West Texans seem to enjoy about football. He was a blue collar kid from the Texas town of New Braunfels, the son of a Vietnam veteran turned high school football coach. Kingsbury wasn’t flashy. He was just a skinny guy who could throw the pigskin.
