AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - Texas football coach Mack Brown and athletic director DeLoss Dodds announced that first-year defensive coordinator Will Muschamp will be signed to a new long-term deal that designates him as Brown’s successor. The 57-year-old Brown insists he does not expect to retire anytime soon.
The 37-year-old Muschamp had been linked to openings at Clemson, Tennessee and Washington among others, but decided instead to wait his turn at Texas. Muschamp’s coaching resume includes jobs at LSU and the Miami Dolphins under Nick Saban and a season as Auburn’s defensive coordinator before Brown hired him at Texas.
