Some may call it irony to read an ECU fan talk about any other AAC program in shambles (except maybe UConn), but me, I think, who better to talk about a program in shambles than an ECU fan.

This, to me, screams the classic useless daddy who has nothing to do in life but to tell everyone that his kid's coach sucks.

But Holy Jesus, this is 'Cougin' It' on a whole 'nother level.

That we do. From the top to the bottom our program was a mess.

D'Eriq, We're on our way. We will be there soon, um...sooner rather than later. Haha.
We will call this one "Chapter 4: King Sooner". You can keep your number. It goes with it. How fitting? Just keep telling them what they want to hear. That you're there for the long haul. We will see you soon, um sooner! Yeehaw!!

You keep making up a scenario that literally isn’t true in order to shoot down the possibility that a coach wouldn’t tank. Sorry but we are tanking and its just a fact.

Can you legit provide a good reason not to tank this year... ill wait because i know you cant. We have no chance of even winning 6 games this year. So why would you lose your best players in a 4 win at best season THAT makes no sense.

I know its old school mentality to always go out and win. But the fact is this is the age of tanking and its proving to work at all levels of sports now. Wether you like it or not our coach is simply starting it at UH.

I don't give a flying crap whether you're tanking or not. You act like I care what Houston does, lol.

I just think the real story is King and Corbin quit before they used up their year of eligibility, and Holgorsen talked them into the redshirt explanation to postpone the decisions on their part, and hope they change their minds.

My evidence is King's dad's tweet earlier today saying exactly that. Redshirting and transferring.

What evidence do you have otherwise?

P.S. If Holgorsen truly is tanking, I wouldn't be so proud of it, lol.

I'm still torn on what I think is going to happen but the evidence would be all the players saying hes not transferring. Your argument (which I do find plausible) is entirely speculative. I dont think it makes much sense debating what's going to happen when we're going to find out one way or another in a couple months.

It's not "entirely speculative at all." I'm basing it on King's dad's tweet. He clearly said D'Eriq was redshirting and transferring. King then said that was wrong, probably b/c he talked to Holgorsen later, but Dad didn't make it up.

And I'm not debating what is going to happen. I DON'T CARE. I'm simply stating my opinion of how this actually happened, and a couple of your sensitive fans took offense, lol.

why are you forcing a fake narrative that has proof that your narrative isnt real

here is a tweet from king, 5minutes after his fathers tweet...saying his fathers tweet is wrong.. he hasnt made any decision like that, and also that he hadnt talked to holgs about it
https://twitter.com/MarkBermanFox26/stat...0086567937

he was back tracking from his dad minutes after his dad said it, hours before he talked to holgs

here is a football players telling us to wait and see what happens after the dad tweets
https://twitter.com/dRoy/status/1176215012425248769
here is another tweet after the information came out
https://twitter.com/dRoy/status/1176249151291625472

you are pushing a very fake narrative that is clearly false...which is what is wrong with this place..you guys would rather live in a lie,than admit you were wrong

also holgs, already said he was trying to redshirt a few starter quality senior players before this game, its unknown if it was planned for kning but he was doing with other players and publicly admitted it

basically saying he was the best rb vs oklahoma, he is good enough to start but we also have 2 other other really good RBs, so just to have mulbah 1 more year, he is going to redhsirt him

It is MY OPINION, based on King's dad's tweet. You can make up any scenario you want, but that doesn't change what dad tweeted, lol.

I don't give a crap about any narrative, just stating what I think happened. Not sure why you even care what I think, b/c I certainly don't reciprocate, and don't give a crap what did or will happen in this case.

Try not to tell everybody else here how to think, or that their opinion is full of crap, when all you have is another opinion.

Flat out throwing away 20-25% of the chance to compete during college for the other 80 guys on the roster for the chance at the 1st overall pick in the draft makes sense, right? Lol

Just get it over with and save time and slap Houston with a lack of institutional control violation now and save us all a few years of continued booster controlled athletic department hijinx. A complete joke that Coach Mullet’s employer would allow him to do this. He’d be called on the carpet at any program above a for profit prep school diploma mill for this.

Just out of curiosity..are you one of the following:

A. A proud parent of a UH player that loves their kid and wants to see only the best happen for them

B. A current student at UH that just started following college football a couple of years ago

C. A or B

Regardless, I'll give you some advice. Set the bar low and expect the worst. That way, you'll never be disappointed.

I only follow the facts. Like this directly from one of players and Coach Holgerson’s son.

I like how I literally posted a tweet from one of the players that destroys your narrative and then you ignore it and claim i have no evidence. What a time to be alive. Who cares if you post facts if they aren’t facts that “I” like am a right?


Sent from the warp via the ruinous powers of chaos.

It doesn't destroy it. It's simply the story they want out there, true or not, but it doesn't change the fact that dad tweeted what he did, lol.

You think he made that up without talking to D'Eriq? How would he even know the situation if he didn't, lol?

Maybe he and/or Corbin transfer, maybe they don't. I couldn't care less. But if you don't think D'Eriq and his dad didn't discuss redshirting AND transferring, I don't know what to say.

I'm not saying he isn't staying, I'm simply saying that looks like what they planned at first. Not sure why you two guys are getting all bent out of shape about it.

Obviously, this is happening b/c King and Corbin are unhappy about how things went, and want a do-over. It's likely not some grand scheme by Holgorsen to tank the season. That's laughable to me.

And if it IS true, then Holgorsen is an idiot. Again, these are my opinions.

This is the second dumbest move I've seen made in college football with Uconn killing their football program being the first. So congrats on that I guess.

I just can’t believe how delusional Houston fans are being. You really think Dana Holgersen knows more about King than his own father. Obviously King isn’t going to just come out and say yeah I’m transferring right away, his dad let the cat out of the bag. But he’s 100% gone. Seriously why would his dad tweet that if it wasn’t true, what good comes out of that.

None and maybe his dad was trying to convince king to leave. Problem with your theory is that all the players around king are tweeting his dad jumped the gun and king isn’t transferring. I trust them over an obvious anti Houston troll.

Allow your first recruiting class to get some playing time (likely promised anyway) and build for the future. Personally I think this is a decent strategy.

I think it's a little ridiculous. Most coaches only get 3 years if they are bad. If they scrap this year, what if there is actually a key injury in 2020 or 2021? I'm assuming that they won't pack it in next year if they lose their first game again.

They are also being very cavalier with recruiting. Would you stay on a team if there is a chance they'll purposefully tank in any season where they start 0-1?

Its risky for sure, but its riskier not to do it.

Dude clearly King isn’t going to tell his teammates he’s transferring. I question the number of interactions you’ve had with human beings if this situation isn’t super clear to you. First of all what kind of twisted mind try’s to convince their kid to do something by tweeting that they’re going to do it in the middle of a **** storm. That’s ridiculous. Second of all I’m not trolling Houston, it’s just obvious what happens here and you’re all in denial.

his dad wasnt around him when all of this went down....he was around his teammates and from kings tweets multiple players were all considering doing this together

if you read his dads quotes, he was just making excuses on why its okay for him to do it... i read it as him either covering for his son to not receive backlash....or jumping the gun to what he wanted

note the dad has already made previous comments that he told king it was okay to transfer..when we put him at WR the dad said he knew some folks at oregon and nudge him that he had that option. the dad said king refused and was loyal to houston even at WR..this was from an article like 9 months ago
