depends on how much is offered a year. he's making 900k as HC in Waiting. If he's offered somewhere about 1.4-1.6 mil he just as soon wait and stay at UT and hope Texas pulls a Bobby Bowden on Mack Brown.

$3M/6 years is what I'm reading from the tn rivals site. not the mods, but guys who think they are in the 'know.' their mod believes that its far from over.

Texas rivals site is beginning to scratch their head over the silence from the school and muschamp himself.

I bet they end up getting him...the talk is, Muschamp wants an easier out to back to the UT job later..

Kind of a bad deal if you ask me...from UT perspective...that is not all in at all....

I'm listening to Ketchum right now on the radio (he owns/runs OrangeBloods) - they have gone from "not going to happen" to "I'm not so sure anymore" within the last 3 hours

shite. I hope this does not happen. I think it would be a good hire. If things go south next year, he needs to be on any short list for LSU HC.

4:00 PM - Not exactly sure what's going on at this point, but I'm starting to believe that there's more going on behind the scenes than we're being told. At this point, it's more of a gut feeling than anything else, although there have been some signs that point in that direction.

After talking with one coach this morning about the Muschamp rumors and being told that the staff had contacted him to let him know Muschamp was staying, we've reached out to more than a half-dozen other high school coaches, including Jordan Hicks' coach, and they haven't heard from the Texas staff at all. It might mean nothing, but it's notable.

I also spoke with another non-UT source and he reported that there's smoke forming that Muschamp is being offered three million dollar per year by Tennessee and that he has not personally told Tennessee that he's out of play, but there's some thought that this could also be agent games at work.

Of course, all of our Texas sources remain 100% certain that Muschamp is staying and we haven't seen anything concrete to dispute that. However, the info from the non-UT source, along with the reports from the coaches that they haven't heard from the Texas staff today has us wondering what's going on a little.

It might not mean anything at all, but we're certainly keeping an eye on things. The bottom line is that the silence on the issue from school and coaches is at least some sort of red flag. (Ketchum)

the thing that's not been mentioned is - I guess there's some sort of coaches convention in Orlando? Apparently Musch & Mack are traveling back and were/still are out of contact - so you know how it goes, every 30min that passes and nothing at all comes out of Muschamp's camp, the more skittish they get, and the speculation continues

yep, that was their excuse early on, but now they're starting to worry after the most recent update that egg just posted

I would be as well. The only way I see Muschamp turning down $3M a year is if Texas gives him a concrete timetable as to when he will take over for Mack Brown, with the timetable being no later than the start of the 2012 season. (And increasing his current salary)

just now from Ketch on the air:

"I just spoke to a very credible source and he's telling me there's something to this"

so it's got some legs for the time being
