While the one possession losses to Kansas State, Oklahoma, Texas, and Oklahoma State were frustrating, most Texas Tech fans were willing to wait at least one more year before seriously considering firing head coach Kliff Kingsbury. But after a 66-10 drubbing to a previously 2-8 Iowa State team ranked ninth in the Big 12 standings, some fans reached a tipping point.
I don’t blame them. The play (or lack thereof) on Saturday was completely unacceptable and was by far the worst performance, especially considering the opponent, we’ve seen during Kingsbury’s four-year tenure.
There is validity to arguments on both sides of whether Kingsbury should stay or go.
