Mack Brown stepped down as the head coach of the Texans Longhorns after last season and is currently working as an analyst for ESPN. That hasn’t stopped programs from having interest in Brown, and the biggest suitor might be the SMU Mustangs, who saw June Jones step down as head coach in September.

On Monday we have confirmation that SMU representatives reached out to Brown via his attorney Joe Jamail.

“He was approached, I was approached, but he’s not interested in coaching anywhere right now,” Jamail told the Austin American-Statesman.

Brown has said that he won’t consider any jobs until December when the college football season ends.

“I’m enjoying working in television at ESPN,” Brown said. “I’ve made a conscious decision to concentrate on this through the fall. I jumped into this [job at ESPN] with both feet. [His wife] Sally and I both made a commitment to this.

“I will not make any decisions about my future until December, after I talk with my bosses at ESPN and see if they’re happy with me, and then when I can evaluate my first year on television. ESPN and [ESPN president] John Skipper have been great to me.”
