Even in Defeat Texas Tech Head Coach Kliff Kingsbury is All Class

A lot of the luster has come off of the public persona of Texas Tech head coach Kliff Kingsbury with his team struggling this season. It's been the kind of season that has made it clear who the band wagon fans are and who are the real members of the Red Raiders Nation. It's also been the kind of season that would make most coaches go nuts and stress out, but Coach Kool.

Not only is his hair always in place, but his priorities are straight as well. He got the chance to prove just that after the loss to Texas last Saturday.

After the 34-13 loss Kingsbury tracked down one of the Longhorns players--long snapper Nate Boyer--so he could do something:

@TTUKingsbury tracked me down after the game + said "Nate, thanks for what you do..." After a tough loss that's pretty Damn classy. Good guy

Boyer was in the Green Berets prior to walking on at Texas and was recently awarded a scholarship.

You would think a coach would track down a player he had tried to recruit or maybe someone whose play had seriously impressed him, but not  Kingsbury. He tracks down a guy that played a handful of snaps at a position most people ignore unless he messes up to say thanks for his service to our country.

Moms already like him for his looks, but things like that will win over a lot of dads.
