Doc Holliday out as Marshall Thundering Herd coach after 11 seasons

Marshall coach Doc Holliday is out after 11 seasons at the school.

Holliday tweeted Monday that university president Jerry Gilbert informed him that the school would not be extending his contract, which was set to expire at the end of June. He went 85-54 at Marshall (55-30 in league play) with a Conference USA title in 2014 and three division championships. This past season, he earned Conference USA Coach of the Year honors for the second time.

"As the head football coach for Marshall, I've always strived to build and leave the program better than I found it," Holliday wrote on Twitter.
