Just hours before Texas takes the field against Mississippi State, a bombshell report about Sarkisian came to light. Dianna Russini of The Athletic said representatives for the Texas coach have let NFL<\/a> teams know that he\u2019d be interested in a few job openings this upcoming offseason. The Tennessee Titans<\/a> were named as a potential option for Sarkisian. <\/p>\n The Titans fired Brian Callahan after a 4-19 start to his tenure. The front office desperately wants a coach capable of maximizing Cam Ward\u2019s potential. Would Sarkisian be the right coach for him? We\u2019re not sure, but that pairing would be interesting.<\/p>\n Sarkisian returning to the NFL would be interesting, make no mistake about it. The majority of the football world is more concerned with Texas though. <\/p>\n There are a plethora of marquee programs looking for a new coach, including Florida and Penn State. Imagine adding Texas to the mix?<\/p>\n Texas coach Steve Sarkisian reacts as he heads to the locker room after his team\u2019s loss to Ohio State in the 2025 Cotton Bowl at A&T Stadium in Dallas. \u2014 Source: \u00a9 Sara Diggins \/ USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images<\/p>\n Texas would become No. 1 job opening.<\/p>\n \u201cThis was already going to be a crazy coaching carousel,\u201d Nicole Auerbach of NBC Sports said<\/a>. \u201cIf Texas opens as well\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI would like this hire quite a bit for the Titans. I also think it\u2019s bad news for any college with an opening if Texas comes open. It\u2019s probably the best job in America at the moment,\u201d Kevin Clark of ESPN wrote on X.<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cIf you\u2019re Texas, how hard are you fighting to keep the offensive whiz and QB guru who has turned two straight 5-star quarterbacks into\u2026 that?\u201d Tom Orr of BuckeyeHuddle.com asked<\/a>.<\/p>\n View directly on \ud835\udd4f<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cIf he wants to jump ship, good riddance. He made a mistake with Arch, failed catastrophically to replace the OL, and now wants out because he\u2019s not getting it done at the level we expect. Go get Jon Sumerall and call it a day,\u201d one person said.<\/p>\n \u201cDude has ruined back-to-back five star QBs and his offense is T. R. A. S. H. What NFL team in their right mind would hire Sark,\u201d another person commented.<\/p>\n Sarkisian was a quarterbacks coach for the Oakland Raiders and offensive coordinator for the Atlanta Falcons<\/a>. <\/p>\n Only time will tell if NFL teams are truly interested in Sarkisian. <\/p>\n About the author Chris Rosvoglou is a veteran sports writer who joined The Spun in 2018.
