I hinted at that several times yesterday. Not out of the realm of possibilities but I haven't heard his name mentioned yet as being contacted this week.
Another name I do know about didn't so well yesterday.
The rumor going around for a very long time is Applewhite really isn't welcome back to Texas.... I have no inside knowledge as to that though.
If he gets put in his place he's fine. If he's aloud to run free you have the SC and Tennessee situations.
Who is going to put a head coach in his place? The AD who makes less than a third of his salary?
Houston should be leery of hiring someone who has shown he will leave a head coaching position after just one season. They would have to load his contract up with compensation clauses.
