Greg Davis' future as Longhorns offensive coordinator is still being decided, according to a report.Sources told the Dallas Morning News that coach Mack Brown is still completing evaluation of his team, coming off a disappointing 5-7 season in the first year after losing Colt McCoy to the NFL. The unit underperformed in 2009, McCoy's last year. Still the team was expecting somewhat of a seamless transition to new quarterback Garrett Gilbert. Instead, Gilbert threw 17 interceptions -- only two shy of the school record -- against only nine touchdowns.
Both Brown and Davis have said the quarterback position will be open in the spring.
A previous report had Brown replacing Davis, but such a move could set off a domino effect with major repercussions on the Longhorns' staff. There's also the close relationship between Brown and Davis, who have worked together for 16 years.
"The thing that coach Brown has done for 13 years is try and build a program, not a team," Davis said last week. "I think our program has a solid foundation. This was obviously a disappointing season and some of these things are correctable. They are things that we will begin immediately trying to get corrected as we head into the offseason."
