Texas Tech is Reportedly Moving on from Kliff Kingsbury

Texas Tech has reportedly wasted no time deciding on whether to bring back — or fire — embattled coach Kliff Kingsbury.

According to a report from KENS 5 news in San Antonio, they’ve chosen the latter and decided to move on from the former Red Raiders QB.

Kingsbury beat OSU only once during his tenure at Tech, which came earlier this season.

Kingsbury’s teams typically started hot and faltered late — and that was especially the case this season. The Red Raiders lost their final five games of 2018, due in large part to QB injuries, after starting 5-2. They lost to Baylor on Saturday to close their season 5-7.

Kingsbury went 35-40 during his head coaching tenure at Tech. With his firing, he’ll now become (if he chooses) one of the most highly sought offensive coordinators this offseason. He could also be a Group of Five head coach candidate if he chose.
