Coach Art Briles ✔ @CoachArtBriles

Follow Contrary to reports and rumors I am a Baylor Bear - 2013 Big 12 Champs9:54 AM - 3 Jan 2014

...Hopefully this will put to rest rumors of him being hired at UT.

 

[JMagana]

Please be a man of your word Mr Briles

 

[DizzG]

he's a Bear until offered. Lets be real - if Patterson offered there is no way he's saying no and you can find multiple sources of that

 

[BullSprig@Work]

YES!!!! <fist pump>

 

[HookemDTX]

That leaves Fisher and Saban.

 

[SlightEdge]

Man thats good news. Briles would not work at Texas.

 

[colepeyton]

im starting to feel ..its Fisher..i could be wrong but my gut has been telling me briles or strong but it just feels like its gonna be Fisher..

 

[dcbc]

Did Briles just hear that Saban is coming to Texas?

 

[Alouha27]

Yesterday I got my ass chewed out on here for saying Briles is not a good coach. I believe I worded things wrong. I should have said I do no think he's a good choice for UT.

 

[aowells]

That leaves Fisher and Saban.

...and Strong and Mora and Franklin and everyone down to Will Muschamp.

 

[Alouha27]

I would be happy with Fisher if Saban turns us down.

I hope your gut is right. Fisher is the best choice for us, IMO.

...and Strong and Mora and Franklin and everyone down to Will Muschamp.

I doubt we let it get past Fisher or Saban.

 

[Davharjac]

On the Horn today it was mentioned that contact was made with him prior to the bowl game and he didn't like that. Don't know how true that is, but just passing the word on.

Patterson canceled the interview

Interesting RT @McClain_on_NFL: Art Briles will stay

at Baylor: You can take it to the bank

 

[Peoples Elbow]

So we are going from Saban to Briles to Mora... LoL. Mora will not put a dent in OU or Aggie recruiting. Sad

 

[HookemDTX]

Mora is NOT going to be the coach.

 

[JKW-Hook 'em]

I would be happy with Fisher if Saban turns us down.

Exactly how I feel. In fact, not sure Fisher is not the overall best selection when you consider age, etc. He learned under Saban so he just might be a younger version of Saban with better people skills and that down-home personality (aka Mack Brown) that plays well at Texas.

If FSU wins Monday night I'm just not sure Fisher leaves knowing he has the Heisman winner coming back and a pretty easy path to the final 4 and a chance to win 2 in a row.
