The Beingreal guy on twitter is saying that the initial offer will be made to Briles.

Confirmed that initial offer will be made to Art Briles to replace Mack Brown due HS connections. Buyout no problem, offer to be significant

The Beingreal guy on twitter is saying that the initial offer will be made to Briles.

So...is Saban going to be Briles' assistant, or will Briles be Saban's assistant?

His top 5 and 6-10

please note in no particular order the new top 5 according to sources, Briles, Harbaugh, Strong, Shaw and Malzahn

completing list 6-10, no order Fisher, Miles, Gruden, Smart, and one unnamed. Apparently a tie, been trying to confirm all day

Hey...Don't shoot the messenger...

Hey...Don't shoot the messenger...

I'm not a Briles guy, but thanks for the update.

I'm ready for Hail Mary Trips!

Briles will kill it here, if he brings in a good DC. I'm not sure he'd be a better choice than S or F but, given the bullshit currently going on with Mack, he may be the best we can get.

Bring on Ringling Brothers….lol. I am choking on the SMOKE!!!

I like Briles but this is not the splash hire many expected.

 

[Alouha27]

I'd flip his 6-10 with his 1-5! Lol...I don't take this guy seriously though.

 

[MKD]

I'm on the Briles bandwagon..... Exciting brand of Football.

[CoachBobbyFinstock]

He's in my top 3 behind Saban and Fisher

 

[Hello Nasty]

It may eventually be Briles, but it certainly isn't yet.

 

[ball911]

Really hard to believe. Given the nature of the Texas job, doesn't seem like the best fit...not that he's not a good football coach.

 

[djohn2oo8]

lol people believing Texas would settle for Briles with Fisher out there. It's Saban.
