Candidates for Texas job include...Mike Tomlin, Nick Saban and Jim Harbaugh?

If you believe this story from CBS Sports website...

Mike Tomlin, Jim Harbaugh reported as possible Texas candidates

I guess coaching the University of Texas must be the greatest gig in the entire football world, seeing as they can apparently get anybody they want :blink:

The source also mentions David Shaw and Urban Meyer as possible options.

Of course, it'd help to be clear on whether Mack Brown is actually 'resigning' or not :unsure:

$100M contract in an income tax free state is hard to refuse no matter who you are.

 

I think they want (and will get) Saban with the NFL coach's next on their list once Mack is officially gone.

Watching Saban jump ship again would certainly be entertaining :lol:

Do you believe it'd truly be possible to pry him away from Bama?

Absolutely....of course it's all rumors but many "sources" say that deal is done but just as many say it will never happen including Herbstreit who defintiely has credibilty so that gives me doubt. If it isn't the reported $100m that can lure Saban away, I think his ego may. Having a chance to take his 3rd team to a National Championship would make him even more of a legend if he can do it. Saban is keeping quiet and reportedly not signing an extension that has been sitting on his desk, but of course this whole Texas thing could just be a good negotiating tactic for him also.  

 

I know Brown is still there but the guy that broke the news that he is gone is also the same guy that broke the news of Texas' AD resigning which was denied many times....until it was announced.

 

Where there is smoke, there is fire.....

 

It will be interesting to see what happens.

The Pope is always perfectly healthy up to the moment he dies :blink:

The shenanigans could be a lot of fun to watch. Among the Crimson Tide fans, there would certainly be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

    • Bryce Young has recorded 4 game-winning drives through nine weeks, leading the Carolina Panthers to crucial victories in tight contests. The 12-play, 58-yard clock-killer versus the Packers in Week 9 (16-13 upset). This pace positions him as the team's most clutch performer in years, with a 68.4% success rate on go-ahead drivesalready surpassing many franchise benchmarks early in his career.   Young's early 2025 surge (top-5 league-wide in clutch EPA at 0.28 per dropback) not only outstrips the debuts of Newton (2 in 2011) and Delhomme (1 in 2003) but hints at him climbing this list quickly if the Panthers sustain their wildcard hunt. Data underscores his growth: no other Panther QB hit 4 GWDs before Week 10 in a season.   The energy fans pour into the stadium directly shapes Bryce Young’s performance positive support has been shown to elevate his fourth-quarter efficiency by 12%, strengthening team cohesion and execution under pressure. Criticizing or booing the starting quarterback fractures morale, disrupts focus, and undermines the very resilience needed in clutch moments. When fans stand firmly behind their QB and team, they become a true home-field advantage, amplifying performance and accelerating the path to sustained success. Now are you a Carolina Panther fan or a Panther hater? 
    • Bryce would have extended some plays scrambling with his legs but then again he also has a high number of fumbles so you never know what you're going to get and the way the Bills were getting after Andy (sacked 7 times) it stands to reason Bryce would have been under duress often. What exactly do you want here? I mean I'm going to go by the gameplan I saw after Bryce turned the ball over against GB. Clearly Dave Canales was deliberately trying to limit the opportunities for him to make a catastrophic mistake. And didn't Micah Parsons log zero QB pressures? So with that in mind if you are asking for anyone to argue our offense with Bryce would have had much if any success against that opportunistic motivated Bills defense while we were also splitting carries between Rico and Chuba who had the majority of them which ended up being a situation resulting in a weeks worth of scathing criticism and deservedly so then I'm going to just have to say we can agree to disagree.
