Nick Saban to Texas?

Most Texans fans are drooling over Kevin Sumlin. Well they were until he signed a new 6 year deal with A&M.

Wade Phillips taking over as interim.

I dont get the whole, wait until the season is no longer salvageable then fire the head coach with 4 weeks left... If you are going to jet someone do it while there can be a positive outcome or finish out the year...

Mike Smith next?

I'd sign him in a heartbeat to work with our running game. He was responsible for the great rushing attack that the Broncos used to have.

@Oak - I think Mike Smith is safe for another season according to Caddieman. They're totally stoked.

Kubiak was an OC and QB coach in Denver. He hasn't coached RBs since A&M. If he doesn't have the ability to effect the play of our offensive line he cant help much.

Jones said he would not fire Phillips.

Jones said he will not fire Garrett.
I believe Glazier has said Schiano's job is safe also...

All of that is fine and dandy until an owner wakes up one morning and comes to terms with "he aint gonna get it done".

I am taking the wait and see approach... I think they have all stepped off into the arena where their job security depends on what mood the owners wakes up in.

My wife texts me to tell me he got fired.....the text read...." Hmm see what happens when you take off a woman's program for your bull**** team"

Here in Houston the game was aired on nfl network, as well as abc..... And In order to get that air time they had to cancel her scandal.....Rotfla her yesterday

I was in a bar and caught the very very tail end of that game last night. As a Saints fan used to the Dome, it was shocking to see so many empty seats.

As far as the question of timing goes, I think it's one of those things. If your coach can't get it done against Jacksonville, then when IS he going to get it together --how much longer does he need? The Texans are actually a pretty GOOD team, talentwise, so this has been a very fascinating implosion.

Exactly. He was responsible for the great O line in Denver during the Elway and Davis years. We need some nasty for the OL.
