When the Cougars finished 2019 on Nov. 30 with a 56-41 loss to the No. 23 Navy Midshipmen that capped off a 4-8 year, head coach Dana Holgorsen wasted no time in wiping his debut season from his memory.
“I did that Dec. 1 of 2019,” Holgorsen told reporters Tuesday morning. “That thing was flushed immediately the night of Navy.”
But with a large chunk of the offseason having come and gone and spring practices ramping up for Houston, Holgorsen has recognized excitement radiating from his squad heading into their second year under his system.
