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.

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

He was never an O-Line coach. As far as him coaching nastyness... Have you seen the Texans this year? The Texans had 1.5 good years under Kubiak.

Wasn't when they were notorious for chop-blocking?

No they were notorius for cut-blocking which is perfectly legal but still critizised by a lot of defenders.

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

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.
