Houston Fires Offensive Coordinator Kevin Barbay After Offensive Woes

The Cougars rank last in scoring nationwide, prompting leadership changes ahead of their season finale against BYU.

Kevin Barbay was dismissed after one season as Houston's offensive coordinator, with the team struggling to meet offensive expectations under his leadership.
The Cougars rank last among all FBS teams in scoring offense, averaging just 13.6 points per game, and have failed to score an offensive touchdown in four games this season.
Quarterbacks coach and passing game coordinator Shawn Bell will serve as the interim offensive coordinator for the team's final game against No. 19 BYU.
Houston's offense has been plagued by inefficiency, including a midseason quarterback change and a combined total of just eight touchdown passes and 15 interceptions from its quarterbacks.
Barbay, who joined the team this year from Mississippi State, had one year remaining on his contract and will be owed $750,000 by Houston.
