Although Charlie Strong is still the head coach of the Texas Longhorns, his job security appears as strong as a wet paper bag.
Many have speculated as to what Texas will do after the season ends. Right now, the Longhorns sit at 3-3. Strong’s defense has given up at least 40 points in four of the six game thus far on the year.
Dan Wolken of USA TODAYÂ came out with a piece on Thursday, and had some rather interesting news on the (potential) Texas coaching search:
CFB INSIDER: Freeze, Fedora, McElwain, Dykes could be in play at Texas if Longhorns can't get Herman https://t.co/LMumEpQN2i via @usatoday

If Ed Orgeron isn’t elevated to the permanent head coach at LSU, Hugh Freeze, Fedora, and FSU head coach Jimbo Fisher may be possibilities, according to Wolken.
Jim McElwain has done a fantastic job of turing Florida around — making the Gators the probable favorite in the SEC East. Freeze has proven to be a fantastic recruiter during his time in Oxford. With an even greater talent base to pull from, he theoretically could be supremely dynamic in Austin.
With coaching rumors swirling on a near daily basis, this won’t be the last we hear about the involvement of this job as it pertains to these SEC head coaches.
