Kliff Kingsbury will return as coach at Texas Tech

Kliff Kingsbury

Kliff Kingsbury will return to Texas Tech next season, the school’s athletic director said on Sunday.

The Red Raiders went 5-7 this season in Kingsbury’s fourth as the program’s head coach. They beat TCU and Baylor, but Texas Tech had the worst defense in college football as they allowed a nation-worst 44 points per game.

Athletic Director Kirby Hocutt said the season was “disappointing” but that he still believes in Kingsbury.

Hocutt said Kingsbury would “absolutely” be back, though things with the program need to change, including the defense.

Kingsbury is 24-26 in four seasons. His best year came in his first as head coach when Texas Tech went 8-5. They went 4-8, 7-6 and now 5-7 in the three ensuing seasons.
