    Good for Houston for going balls out for a guy.

    But why him? Hell, why not KK who has no buyout?

    We offered Dana an additional 1 year extension (through 2022) with buyout being 60% of remaining contract

    He wanted an additional year but the contract fully guaranteed

    Bye.

    9 years into his head coaching career and he’s at Houston. Can’t imagine that’s how he expected things to go

    Don’t get me wrong he is gonna win 8-9 games consistently there with the occasional 10 win season but they aren’t gonna be UCF level

    SMU spent a ton of money on June Jones, but that was a few years back and not a P5 coach going to G5.

    If it works, the secret to success as a G5 school is to simply have a graduate who is a sports obsessed billionaire.
