Kliff Kingsbury

Kliff Kingsbury’s sixth year coaching at Texas Tech will be his last, as the school has decided to move on from him following a 5-7 season. On Monday, the Red Raiders alumnus made it clear that there are no hard feelings.

In a letter that he shared on social media and had published in a local Lubbock newspaper, Kingsbury called coaching at Texas Tech the “honor of my life” and thanked fans and the school for their support.

Thank you. #WreckEm pic.twitter.com/X7znxRdz2u

Kingsbury was only able to take Texas Tech to three bowl games in six years, and it was not a surprise when school administrators decided to move on from him following a 5-7 campaign. The Red Raiders were 16-21 with just one bowl appearance in the past three years.

One report claims Texas Tech already has a replacement in mind, and Kingsbury should be able to find a job as a head coach with a smaller program if he chooses to go that route.
