The texas job opening has been a big collective money grab for any coach with decent stock. A great time to be an up and coming or elite coach right now.
Texas AD: Next coach needs to be hired by Jan. 15
Chip Brown ?@ChipBrownOB 2hSource tells Orangebloods Texas AD Steve Patterson interviewing Louisville's Charlie Strong
Per @BobbyBurton247 source close to Charlie Strong says #Texas interview did not happen today (VIP) bit.ly/18WQWDJ
The Texas Longhorns have inquired about Louisville head coach Charlie Strong, sources told Yahoo Sports on Tuesday.
Another source close to the situation said Patterson has already interviewed Vanderbilt coach James Franklin and wants to talk to Michigan State's Mark Dantonio.Patterson met with a group of Texas lettermen before the Alamo Bowl on Monday who expressed support for Baylor coach Art Briles.A group of billionaire donors appear ready to make their case for Florida State's Jimbo Fisher as the next coach at Texas. Even though Fisher signed a new contract extension at FSU that will take his salary to $4.1 million, the new deal has no buyout, two sources confirmed. Previously, Fisher had a buyout of $2 million. So the new deal effectively makes it easier for Fisher to leave, if he chose to do so, sources said.Another billionaire Texas donor has let it be known he supports Jon Gruden as Mack Brown's replacement.
Patterson has consulted former Texas athletic director DeLoss Dodds, who has recommended that even former Texas coach-in-waiting Will Muschamp, coming off a 4-8 season at Florida, get consideration, a source said.
Brett McMurphy @McMurphyESPNUL AD Tom Jurich told @espn if Charlie Strong met w/UT as @ChipBrownOB reported, Patterson did not get permission from UL
That block by #3 was seriously badass.
Dennis Dodd @dennisdoddcbsSome news on Strong/Louisville: Patterson reached out to Jurich Tues. The 2 never spoke, SP never got permission to interview ......also, as of Tuesday morning Strong had not interviewed with Texas.
