Daily Bullets (Nov 29) – New CFB Hires with Oklahoma Ties, Different 6-6 Seasons

Texas State has reportedly made a hire, bringing on a former Oklahoma State staffer and Tulsa native to right the ship.

Should it come to fruition, the timing of this promotion is interesting, and frankly, probably good for both (Jake) Spavital and West Virginia. On paper, Spavital has an impressive resume that suggests he’s ready to take the next step in his career.

The 2018 season marked his 11th as an assistant and he’s coached under such offensive minds as Oklahoma State’s Mike Gundy, Kevin Sumlin at Houston and Texas A&M, and obviously Dana Holgorsen at West Virginia.
