Coug High
- Thread starter TU_BLA
- Start date
CBS Sports is saying that he is leaving. Another (unconfirmed report) saying he was at OU over the weekend.
They may not win another game this season. Wonder if Tillman Fertita will stand for that considering Houston's philosophy of "We fire coaches for going 7-5".
And King's statement to reporters might also indicate that there's a ton of turmoil at Coug High between Herman/Applewhite's players and Holgorsen. This quote came after he was asked if his decision to leave was final:
"I've got to go talk to Coach Holgorsen. It's not just me redshirting. It's a bunch of other guys as well."

NM on the OU stuff...someone was clowning. Personally, I don't think King is a next level QB. Supremely gifted athlete, yes, but his future isn't the QB position.
Could he end up at Arizona under Sumlin next year? Tate is listed as a SR. I'd venture a guess a few of our players know King extremely well
Apparently he is not leaving now. His dad was the one talking about leaving. Apparently King and another starter will RS this year and plan on returning for next year. Some are speculating they will RS so they can focus on academics to possibly use the grad transfer next year. Is Coug High already writing off this season and looking to next year with this move?
I think the two players are writing off their season with UH and with Holgerson.
And, despite the happy talk about coming back, I wouldn't hold my breath.
This is a really terrible use of the redshirt rule. Weird how the 4th quarter implosion seems to have blown up on UH. Not that I have any sympathy for the program.
The UH game now looks very winnable.

King is still going to transfer. I think he’s backtracking to help his Dad from getting pounded by UH and the press.
King will have graduated by the next football season. He gawn. My guess is Florida State.

I think you're right. It wouldn't surprise me if they go all in on the academics and graduate and then use the grad transfer rule.
He doesn't need to go anywhere near Florida State. He's not that good and Florida State is something awful. My guess is King gets a shot at TCU if he wants it (their offense always struggles for unbeknownst reasons). The other is Kansas. Throw King back there with Pooka Williams and see what happens.
interesting to see that UH pounded North Texas (not so Fine) about the same score that SMU had, both games in Denton.
Houston ran the ball down their throats. New QB had a 124 passing yds and 100 yds rushing. SMU threw the ball a ton. UNT was able to run the ball with a lot of success against SMU as well.
I expect a lot of Zaven Collins/Cooper Edmiston QB spying in our game with Houston. Keep the new QB in the pocket and they will struggle to move the football effectively.
