It looks like Urban Meyer will not be the next head coach of Texas.
After weeks of rumors and reports of Longhorns’ potential interest in appointing the mayor as head coach to replace Tom Herman, it seems unlikely that after multiple reports the mayor may have ended the conversation with Texas, which is why he chose not to return to coaching. Health reasons.
An earlier report by Horns 247 confirmed that former Ohio State coach Urban Meyer had told Texas officials he had chosen not to return to coaching for health reasons. The mayor told UT this week. UT source tells me and BDavisAAS UT is still “sorting” what to do next. https://t.co/qqSjlk5THV

The mayor’s retirement from the state of Ohio was due to health concerns surrounding an enlarged arachnoid abscess in his brain, which caused frequent headaches during sports.
Regardless of the mayor for Texas, Longhorns has a real chance of retaining Herman. The four-year head coach has a ખરીદી 25 million purchase on contract, and there are currently no other clear contenders to replace him.
Horns 247 has also researched Texas Alabama offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian, Oregon coach Mario Cristobal, Penn State coach James Franklin and Iowa State coach Matt Campbell.
