TCU could be close to deal with Pitt coach Jamie Dixon

On Sunday, CBS Sports' Gary Parrish wrote that Pitt head coach Jamie Dixon was considering an offer from TCU. That set off nearly a full day of speculation from both sides and, as you might expect, Pitt fans have been somewhat split on the idea of keeping Dixon vs. letting him leave. Nothing has officially been reported just yet, but it sounds like something could be happening shortly.

According to the Fort Worth Star Telegram, Dixon and TCU could be closing in on a deal. Soon, in fact:

Sources close to the discussions indicated Sunday night that the sides were closing in on a deal and that Dixon was trying to assemble a staff with Texas ties.
