NFL guys:
Mike Tomlin
John Harbaugh

no shot at EITHER of these guys… doesn't make sense…

1.) both still employed
2.) neither about to be fired, nor any rumors of any "hot seat"
3.) if in fact MB does step down, Texas needs a coach ASAP…
4.) they need that coach ASAP to get out on the recruiting trail and finish up this cycle with the last of the spots, and keep the class together
5.) the NFL season is at least 4 more weeks for Tomlin and possibly longer for Harbaugh… MB, if he doesn't beat Baylor this weekend (which he won't), in all likelihood, he could be pressured to step down ASAP, as the season is over and bowl game don't mean shite anyway…
6.) and finally, when was the last time a currently employed, overall successful, not-even-on-the-hot-seat-yet NFL coach took a step down to the college ranks??

sure, ol' Texas well-connect can throw out some names, but i'm not buying either one of these two…
