Holgorsen, Khator have high expectations

UH Athletics introduced Dana Holgorsen as the football team’s new head coach on Thursday afternoon in front of hundreds of fans, media and members of the team.

The theme of the press conference was high expectations.

“(UH) is not a stepping stone. I’ve been there and done all that. I am interested in making this place great,” Holgorsen said.

Holgorsen was head coach at West Virginia in the Big XII for seven season and the Big East for one season. Previously, he was an offensive coordinator at Oklahoma.

Chairman of the Board of Regents Tilman Fertitta started the press conference and said the Board of Regents wanted a good coach, but also one that was not looking ahead for their next job.
