Dana isn’t leaving Houston unless he’s fired. He loves Texas and that area. He was always making appearances on a Houston radio station. He knew a couple years ago they’d get a shot at P5 and had much more potential than WVU.There was talk of firing him after the Iron Bowl loss, firing him in year 1 would be hilarious because they’re paying him $5.25mill per & he’s already earned an incentive bonus for getting them to be bowl eligible this year, his buyout is $17.5mill if they fire him without cause... However, maybe having an affair with an intern is a confident just cause, maybe they even sent her at him lol
Plus they’re still paying off $21.5mill from when they fired Gus Malzahn.
If they do can Harsin, Dana Holgorsen would be good there, although if I’m him I wouldn’t wanna leave Houston just to go to the SEC West & get fired in 2 years because I can’t compete with Bama, TAMU, Ole Miss, LSU & an emerging Arkansas. Houston’s a good G5 gig that you can comfortably win 10+ games a year at & not ever worried about an insane unruly fan base calling for your head every other season.
Jamey Chadwell being a Super Saiyan Redneck would fit lovely in Auburn, he’s a really good coach & has affable personality that would lend itself well to Southern style recruiting, plus he’d probably get a solid 3-4 years before they grabbed the pitchforks.
But now more than ever would be the perfect opportunity for Bill Clark to finally get his turn to make a run at being a P5 SEC coach & considering his staunch respect in the state of Alabama he’d kill it at a place like Auburn. I can’t think of a coach would have more support locally than Bill Clark.
If Harsin is fired they should seriously consider him, although I think they’d probably want a splash hire.
I played golf a couple of times in Morgantown during his tenure, at a course by his old house and there was talk his last two years that he’d leave for a job in Texas. Was only a matter of time.
