As Tech’s basketball team continues to impress in the insanely competitive Big 12 Conference, the focus on Kliff Kingsbury and his football team going into the sixth year of his tenure has somewhat lightened.
This, however, is undoubtedly the most important time of the year for the 38-year old. Through five seasons, he’s coached the Red Raiders to a 30-33 record with a 1-3 mark in bowl games. Last year started off promising with wins against Eastern Washington, Arizona State and Houston, but lost five out of the next six, ultimately finishing the regular season with a 6-6 record.
