Applewhite to Interview in Austin

In an effort to piss off the entire state of Alabama, the Crimson Tide has confirmed that Major Applewhite will be interviewing in Austin for the Longhorn's open runningback coach position. Applewhite has had a meteoric rise through the coaching ranks, going from Texas to Syracuse, to Rice to the offensive coordinator at Alabama, under Nick Saban.

Major will interview on the 15th. It seems likely that if Major is going to take a step down from OC, he has to be expecting that he will eventually take over as Texas offensive coordinator after the eventual departure of Greg Davis.
