Again, I just don't see us flying off the handle and firing him. Not after he beat OU and was carried off the field by his players. He hasn't lost his players yet, so he can still turn it around.
Reality is, he isn't going to turn it around, he is in over his head and I'm really hoping he does take the Miami job. It's better for everyone.
The real issue is who replaces him? There are some big programs out there with the jump on us as far as coaching search goes, and this isn't a hire we can get wrong.
Word is that Sean Payton might be wanting to move down to the college ranks, but I'm not sure he can recruit. I have a feeling that USC is all in on Chip Kelly he would be the perfect fit for addressing our offensive issues. The real question is, what will he do to make sure the defense doesn't slip?
I have a feeling, you are going to see Texas force him to take the Miami job by offering him a package of money a lot less than 15 million but enough to entice him to jump.
