Prologue: I thought we had it. I felt good about Clayton Hatfield returning and that it would help Kingsbury in his red zone playcalling, but even with all the flashes of good, Bill Snyder’s team once again hung around and won in the end. It’s not that I no longer believe that Kingsbury is the right coach for Texas Tech going forward, it’s that I’m wondering if at this level of fan ambivalence will Tech just decide to move on to get everyone on the same page?
The story of Kliff Kingsbury becoming head coach at Texas Tech is rooted back in 2008 and the upcoming contract negotiations with Mike Leach.
