Obvious connections to our AD and this would be the rub, depending on who is allowed and not allowed to bring on staff with him.

OC for the number 6 scoring offense in the country last season.

Major just got UH to pony up big money to keep him around. He was also right square in the middle of the Baylor mess. I covered him during his playing days in Austin but I would not be enthusiastic about him as a candidate.

Great Insight. Thank You.


Can you update the profile with a pic and links

K. Thx. Bye.

Sly, do you think that the overtures about Kendal interviewing at Texas State - and then suddenly not - an indication that it was used as leverage to get increased money at UH or a reflection that his time at Baylor - in some places - is still a deterrent?

Or was he never really in the picture at Texas State before they made the Spavital hire?

I think he feels getting paid In a no-lose situation where his boss could be a hot P5 property next year opening up the UH gig factored highest. If Major leaves he get his dad's old gig without much thought.

Texas State job is not a great one.

And UH would be able to very easily dismiss anything related to the past by saying, "He's been in our program and has been exemplary in all things." Thanks for the share.

Serious question, what part did he play in the Baylor mess other than sharing the last name?

I dont know exactly, I remember reading most of the accounts and thinking he was in the middle of it more than Art.

My understanding is Kendal is the actual dirty coach in the Briles family but his dad took the fall.
