ARLINGTON -- The last Texas Tech head coach vaulted right into the NFL despite having been fired in November after three straight losing seasons. The Red Raiders believe they found a more than able replacement for Kliff Kingsbury in Matt Wells...despite three straight losing seasons of his own prior to 2018.
At this time a year ago the Utah State coach was not on any "hot" lists. After a burst of success in his first two seasons, Wells' teams had gone 6-7, 3-9 and 6-7. Quite frankly that's very Kingsbury-like given that Kliff had four losing records in six seasons in Lubbock.
