    First Memphis, now Baylor? Is this happening to a lot of schools or is Houston just **** out of luck as usual?

    They should be treated as forfeits. UH 4-0, looking to recapture that 2011 and 2015 magic.

    Statistically he is doing well... but hard to tell because Louisville hasn’t put any pressure on him so has all day.

    Holgorsen's making Kim Helton's lifetime compensation in a single year, doing so without playing games is a reprieve until the coordinator job at Directional State opens up.

    Kinda silly to pretend this season was going to happen.

    So how are they handling player eligibility this year? Sucks for the players.

    I'm staring to think renewing my season tickets was a bit optimistic.

    Everyone gets another year, if they want it. Does not affect draft eligibility.

    Holgorson's just pissed that there's only about 50% of the usual coeds on campus, and the bars are closed.

    THIS guy is interested in co-eds and bars? I AM SHOCKED

    On a more serious note, last year it was going around that when he went to get his yearly physical at Herman (which he is required to do) his heart rate at 9 am was 140 ........... WaR HeArT DaMaGe AnD EaRlY DeAtH !

    Holgorsen does look unhealthy. Reminds me of Jeff Van Gundy rolling out of the Rockets film room with a Diet Coke in his shaky hand, dark circles under his eyes, what hair he has a mess, and an overall wrinkled, disheveled look. I don't know why he would want to leave the easy money of analyzing games to deal with the stress of coaching.

    I don't know Holgerson's reputation but from what I've seen he comes off like a hot head and this is partially why a bunch of kids didn't want to play for him last year. I guess we can expect Fritatta to hire a similar type hot head with the Rockets.
