Report: Florida's Kevin O'Sullivan won't be the next Texas baseball coach

Hamstrung by the continuing NCAA Tournament, the 'Horns are mostly succeeding in getting other coaches paid right now.

With two other potential Texas Longhorns baseball coaching targets having signed or verbally accepted extensions, Florida Gators head coach Kevin O'Sullivan increasingly looked like the top target for athletic director Mike Perrin. But according to Kendall Rogers of D1Baseball.com, O'Sullivan will remain in Gainesville and will not give the Texas job further consideration.

If the report holds up, it would mean that the Longhorns are almost solely responsible for skyrocketing coaching salaries across the country -- first it was Louisville's Dan McDonnell, who will now make in excess of $1 million per season, then it was TCU's Jim Schlossnagle on Thursday.
