MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Texas Tech officials reportedly are targeting West Virginia coach Dana Holgorsen as a replacement for Kliff Kingsbury, who was fired Sunday after six seasons.
Sources at West Virginia did not confirm Holgorsen’s mutual interest in the Red Raiders’ job, especially with him also on the radar for vacancies at Colorado and Louisville.
Holgorsen would owe the university $2.5 million if he leaves for another job before Dec. 31, and $1 million thereafter.
Kingsbury was notified of his dismissal after Saturday’s 35-24 loss to Baylor, which sealed Texas Tech’s third consecutive losing season.
