While it's nice to have other fans coveting our coaching staff for a change, it's also a little unnerving at times. The Applewhite to Houston rumors were a little laughable, but now comes word that there could be something to the Applewhite to Texas as the new Longhorns OC rumors:
To recap the situation briefly: there's talk not only that Texas has an interest in Major Applewhite, but that the interest is mutual. Though this seems like a given to certain segments of the fanbase, the reality is much more nuanced; not only is Major extraordinarily well situated at Alabama, but it's never been a given that Applewhite would share the same enthusiasm for returning to Texas as the fans have for seeing him return.
