Texas Tech?s Kenny Williams: Kingsbury?s arrival ?huge? for program; coaching change ?turned out for the better?

Texas Tech running back Kenny Williams figures ?33 is the new 20,? as he put it Monday, the opening day of Big 12 football media days in downtown Dallas.

He was referring to the youth of Kliff Kingsbury, his new coach and the former Red Raiders quarterback. That was meant as a compliment, by the way, with the Tech players buying into the new staff after Tommy Tuberville suddenly took off for Cincinnati after an 8-5 (4-5 Big 12) season in 2012.

?We didn?t know what the future was going to hold for us,? Williams said, ?but knowing Kliff was coming in, that was huge ? He can communicate with us; he knows what?s going on. It turned out for the better.?

Kingsbury will call plays, as he did last season as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for Texas A&M and Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Johnny Manziel. He admits to not knowing everything as a first-year head coach but said he?s been too busy to be overwhelmed.

?I think not only age, but being in a place that I played and wasn?t too far removed from, I think that helps,? Kingsbury said. ?It?s easy to sell a product when you lived it and you loved it and you?re telling the parents and telling the kids. Hopefully, they see that passion.?

The official opening of the Kingsbury Era is set for Aug. 30 at 7 p.m. at SMU.

Portugal's president keeps coalition govt in power

Portugal's president has accepted a compromise reached by the coalition government that allows it to stay in power, defusing a crisis that had roiled financial markets.

In an address to the nation, President Anibal Cavaco Silva ruled out early elections, opting for "the best alternative" which is "the continuation in office of the current government."

The coalition nearly split July 2 when Foreign Minister Paulo Portas, the leader of the junior party, threatened to resign.

A compromise was reached within the coalition when Portas was appointed deputy to Prime Minister Pedro Passos Coelho, but this step required the president's agreement, which he gave late Sunday.

The political dispute had raised fears that Portugal would be unable to abide by the terms of its 78 billion euros ($102 billion) international bailout.

King David-Era Palace Found in Israel, Archaeologists Say

Archaeologists say they've uncovered two royal buildings from Israel's biblical past, including a palace suspected to have belonged to King David.

The findings at Khirbet Qeiyafa ? an fortified hilltop city about 19 miles (30 kilometers) southwest of Jerusalem ? indicate that David, who defeated Goliath in the Bible, ruled a kingdom with a great political organization, the excavators say.

"This is unequivocal evidence of a kingdom's existence, which knew to establish administrative centers at strategic points," read a statement from archaeologists Yossi Garfinkel of the Hebrew University and Saar Ganor of the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA).

The IAA announced the finds as a seven-year long excavation at the site is wrapping up. The government agency and the Israel Nature and Parks Authority have halted the planned construction of a nearby neighborhood, hoping to make the site a national park. [In Photos: Archaeology Around the World]

Garfinkel has previously said Khirbet Qeiyafa could be the site of Shaaraim, a biblical city associated with King David in the Bible. Shaaraim means "two gates" and two gates have been found in the fortress ruins. Others researchers, meanwhile, have claimed this site might be Neta'im, another town mentioned in the book 1 Chronicles in the Old Testatment.

Prior radiocarbon analysis on burnt olive pits at the site indicated that it existed between 1020 B.C. and 980 B.C., before being violently destroyed, likely in a battle against the Philistines. Much of the palace was further wrecked 1,400 years later when a Byzantine farmhouse was built on the site.

The archaeologists found a 100-foot-long (30-meter-long) wall that would have enclosed the palace, and inside the complex they discovered fragments of ceramic and alabaster vessels, some of them imported from Egypt. The researchers say the building was strategically located to overlook the city and the Valley of Elah.

"From here one has an excellent vantage looking out into the distance, from as far as the Mediterranean Sea in the west, to the Hebron Mountains and Jerusalem in the east," the archaeologists said. "This is an ideal location from which to send messages by means of fire signals."

The excavators also found a pillared building measuring about 50 feet by 20 feet (15 m by 6 m) that was likely used as an administrative storeroom.

"It was in this building the kingdom stored taxes it received in the form of agricultural produce collected from the residents of the different villages in the Judean Shephelah," or Judean foothills, the archaeologists said. "Hundreds of large store jars were found at the site whose handles were stamped with an official seal as was customary in the Kingdom of Judah for centuries."
