So Doc Holliday has been let go by Marshall, not fired, they just let his contract run out and they won't renew it. This is apparently because the governor of West Virginia has an ax to grind with Holliday, and wants Marshall to replace him with Bob Pruett, former great Marshall coach, who is 77 years old and last coached in 2008. The governor wouldn't sanction a contract extension for Holliday, so here we are. Incidentally, Holliday was just named CUSA Coach of the Year.
God I love college football.
(The Governor is 6'7", the richest man in West Virginia, has switched parties twice during his brief time in politics, and is named Jim Justice. Only in America.)
