Looks like the Cougars coach Art Briles is getting his shot at an interview. Art Briles is currently with the University of Houston but has been under the radar of Baylor college as if Art Briles is a piece of meat. Well actually not really, but Baylor wants to interview with coach Art Briles and see what they might be able to off the man. I don;t think the fans of Houston are too happy with Coach Briles decision to give a second glance at coaching somewhere else, but when your options are open you got to check things out on the other side of the fence.
Art Briles has been with the University of Houston for a good while and has held a pretty decent record. Hes young and he has a 34-28 record with the Cougars so far. By many in college sports standards, Art Briles is considered one of the top young coaches in the country.
Looking at the boys who he has coached, his Houston teams have already been in four bowl games in a period of five years. They have also won the Conference USA title last season, so yea I guess you could say hes a choice. Hes not a choice but rather a young coach that can only go upwards as he gains more experience and builds upon the team he has playing with him.
The UH athletic director Dave Maggard basically said that coach Art Briles asked him about going on the interview with Baylor and he got the go ahead. Maggard also said that he told Art Briles that he wanted him to stay with the University of Houston team and asked if Art Briles really needed to do this. Art Briles said that he really did need too. I guess this answers a few things then.
Art Briles would make an amazing coach for Baylor university, but nothing is set in stone so we will just have to wait and see where this one takes him. Maybe Baylor will have a new coach Art Briles when its all said and done. Everyone is going to have to sit back and watch.
