The news cycle on the coaching carousel started spinning very fast for the Texas football program on the morning of Jan. 2.
Heading into the 2021 offseason, it was figured that the Texas football program wouldn’t have a decision on the now former fourth-year head coach Tom Herman until at least later in the month of January. It sounded like Texas athletic director Chris del Conte was going to wait at least until the College Football Playoff National Championship Game concluded later this month to have this type of news drop to the public.
