Wilcox to Texas? (latest rumors say he has offer)

Another day, another name emerges for the Texas defensive coordinator job.

First was can't-miss frontrunner Randy Shannon. Then Teryl Austin became the guy, no doubt about it, from on-line reports. DeWayne Walker surfaced as a possibility, a front-runner and then an apparent non-candidate - all in the span of a couple of hours in the Twitterverse.

The new hot name Sunday night is Tennessee defensive coordinator Justin Wilcox, in reports that seem to have originated around the Volunteers program. First FootballRumorMill.com suggested Wilcox was in "serious discussions" with Texas. Then other sites joined the party, with Rivals affiliated VolQuest.com indicating Wilcox was a "viable candidate of interest." Next step: mad message board panic.

Here's what we know from the Texas standpoint: Mack Brown is still keeping his own counsel and nothing appears imminent. Everything indicates that Brown will not be raiding staffs of teams before bowl games and Tennessee is playing in the Music City Bowl on Dec. 30. Plus, the Texas coordinator jobs will attract a lot of highly qualified candidates, many of whom may be with teams in bowls. For agents, it's a dream situation to create leverage for clients.

Anybody not named Mack Brown who claims to know exactly what's happening is probably wrong.

Anarchy!!! Tennessee has sold the rights to the song Rocky Top to Texas!!! Ahhhhh!!! Burn the mattress!
 
I am not going to say Wilcox sucks, but he has yet to prove anything. If he leaves after 1 year that is BS.
