Putting compensation aside, is coaching in Lubbock, TX. an upgrade from Morgantown?
Great question: If Holgerson feels like the pressure is on, nothing wrong with getting a new 5 year clock.
In terms of recruiting natural territory, I think it makes a lot of sense for him, since his recruiting style is heavily Texan versus Western PA/Ohio/DMV Area.
As to what WVU can offer him in terms of facilities and loyalty, my answer is no. WVU is way better in this regard and I think in the middle of a heavy fundraising campaign right now. We will see if he takes it, but I feel like it would be a lateral move outside of protecting himself from potentially getting fired from WVU.
