Nebraska Defensive Backs Coach Brian Stewart Interviews for UTSA Head Coaching Position

The search for UTSA's next head coach hit a screeching halt today as two candidates pulled out of the running.

Roadrunner fans grew a bit uneasy today as the UTSA coaching search fell quiet.

Two of the assumed leading candidates, David Bailiff and Curtis Looper, both dropped out of the race as they elected to remain at their current positions.

While it always felt like a major stretch that UTSA would be able to poach Bailiff away from a divisional rival, Luper was a very attainable and highly interested candidate. I can confirm a report from Inside Roadrunner Sports that Luper did not feel comfortable with pressure from UTSA to retain the Roadrunners' current coaching staff.
