Sloan Leaves Tech in Coaching Shuffle for Ole Miss
The Texas Tech Red Raiders confront a coaching vacancy as Steve Sloan departs for Ole Miss after three seasons. Texas Tech had hoped Sloan would guide the program to future Cotton Bowls, but recruiting, SEC ties, and West Texas loyalty factor into the decision. Potential successors discussed include Grant Teaff, Tom Wilson, Richard Bell, with others like John Ralston, Hayden Fry, Mike White, and Bobby Bowden mentioned in speculation. The departure leaves Tech aiming to fill big shoes and retool for the Tangerine Bowl era.
