Between me and the powers that be, UT is better off paying a few extra million and cutting bait now.

The hiring window us already suboptimal.

I think we’re ok to wait a bit (but not TOO long). There are no other major jobs currently open, so there’s really no competition for the A-listers.

And that’s assuming any A-listers would want this job (and the potential NCAA issues that come with it) anyway. We’ll probably have to hire an assistant, small-school coach, or promote from within, and that can be done anytime.

So if we can save $13M by waiting a few weeks, we might as well.

Hm, seems like with all the other firings UT might want to get on board.  Following rather than leading as usual, but we will see.
