Texans defensive coordinator Matt Burke reportedly on one team's short list for next head coach

Indiana Hoosiers head football coach Curt Cignetti famously told reporters, "Google me" when asked about whether he could actually turn the Hoosiers into a football powerhouse in the Big Ten. But if Houston Texans defensive coordinator Matt Burke offered the same bold retort, the impending Google search would almost just as likely bring up details about a country music singer or one of two Australian rugby stars of the same name.

This may change soon enough, and if the Houston Texans' season-long emergence as the best defense in the NFL doesn't do it, what potentially comes next for Houston's defensive coordinator could spark a spike in name recognition for the 49-year-old who has been in the NFL in some capacity since 2004.
