Farewell letter: Holgorsen will be ‘cheering on the Mountaineers from afar’

Outgoing West Virginia football coach Dana Holgorsen submitted this farewell letter that appeared in Sunday’s edition of The Dominion Post:

After eight seasons in Morgantown, I am beginning a new chapter in my coaching career back in Houston. Leaving the great State of West Virginia is difficult. West Virginia is a special place. The passion and pride that West Virginians have for their state and for the flagship University is remarkable and helped elevate our program.

I want to thank Mountaineer Nation for the incredible support and for welcoming my family and I into your family.
