Mack Brown Will Not Freestyle Until 2016

((HT: KXAN-TV))

At least according to his new deal with the University of Texas...

He will receive $3 million in 2009, plus a one-time $2 million service payment on Feb. 1, 2010. The new contract, however, raises his salary to $5 million starting next season.

"Mack is the best college football coach in America and this action recognizes him for that," said Men's Athletics Director DeLoss Dodds. "He brought new life to our program and he's done it with great integrity and class. He is who we want at Texas for as long as he is willing to serve as our head coach. This will also ensure a smooth transition when Mack decides to hand over the reins to Will Muschamp."

Whenever that is... and be rest assured that Muschamp will continue to be regarded for his lieutenant-like loyalty until the day Mack decides to hang up his whistle...

Those of us at OSG HQ view this as cementing everything in place. Whether or not it will work better at Texas than every place else they tried this "coach-in-waiting" crap is beyond us...

Here's coverage from our friends at KXAN-TV in Austin...
