Doesn't it expire next year? Not that I think he's actually going to be on Texas' short list.
Once they iron out the details of Mack's role within the University after the expected resignation, I'm certain that the BOR and President will conduct a lengthy, well publicized National search. I'm also certain that they already have candidate(s) in mind and have probably already began contract negotiations with atleast 2 of them.
Regardless of recent re-negotiations with some coaches across the country at their respective schools, I dont believe for one second that the BOR in Austin are hesitant to ask a few of them to consider the position.
Current NFL coaches being mentioned appear to be the brass in Austin attempting to flex their muscle publically for pomp and circumstance.
Names like Jim Tressel, Art Briles, Charlie Strong, James Franklin and yes, Nick Saban (you have to call him atleast) are viable IMO.
Mike Shanahan will be canned soon and then his name will pop up I'd imagine.
I've heard Larry Fedora's name brought up too which I think would infuriate the fan base.
A very dark horse that I keep thinking about, should he still have the passion for the game would be, Bill Cowher.
And just for grins, I'd be remiss if I didnt type the name Jon Gruden. <--This was done for entertainment purposes only fellas.

If I were Texas, calls in order: Saban, Petrino, Pinkel, Dantonio
Question about Gary Patterson. He was a hot name a couple years ago and denied interest in a number of jobs, but since moving to the Big 12 has been underwhelming. What's his deal?
