Texas may be one of the drivers for future CR... but they got a lot of issues not only in the athletic department but going all the way to Gov. Perry (A&M superfan) according to this article from SI (Pete Thamel).
One of the things that jumped out to me related to the Longhorn network:

While Texas' on-field performance has slipped, Brown's off-field demands have also increased. Every Monday, Brown has media obligations from 9:50 a.m. to 3 p.m. He spends time on Tuesday and Wednesday dealing with Longhorn Network shows focused on Texas practices, and he has an hour-long radio show simulcast on Wednesday. On Thursday, he does a 30-minute television show that takes approximately an hour to tape.
Mention these obligations to ADs and agents around the nation and they'll laugh out loud. In fact, many at Texas worry that the media obligations could dissuade a more reclusive (Boise State's Chris Petersen) or single-minded (Saban) coach from accepting the job. Dodds said Brown made alterations to the demands on his time this offseason, but acknowledged the complexities that come with being the Longhorns coach.
