There are some major things happening in the world of college football on Saturday.
Texas fired head coach Tom Herman and the rumors are that Alabama OC Steve Sarkisian will be the next head coach in Austin.
Or will he? According to ESPN analyst David Pollack, he’s heard Sark will take the job, but he’s also heard Sark has turned the job down:
I see and have heard that Sark is the guy at Texas and now I have heard that Sark turned the job down. ??♂️

Obviously, until Texas officially announces Sarkisian as the next head coach, anything can happen. Just ask Auburn, Tennessee and some other schools that have had drama-filled coaching searches in recent years.
We’ll see what happens with Sarkisian moving forward, but as Alabama prepares for the national championship game, this will be something to watch.
