It's the end of an era at Texas after head coach Tom Herman was relieved of his coaching duties Jan. 2 after four seasons coaching the Longhorns. The former head coach depart from Texas with a 32-18 record with the Longhorns and was told he was fired Saturday morning, according to multiple Horns247 sources. So what's next for the Longhorns?

On this week's emergency pod episode of The Flagship Podcast, Horns247 columnist Chip Brown and managing editor Taylor Estes weigh in on Herman's firing by Texas and break down the lead candidate to replace Herman in Alabama offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian. The Flagship weighs in on where things went awry for Herman, and what Sarkisian brings to the table as the heir apparent to Herman. Chip and Taylor also discuss some names to watch as potential assistant coaches under Sarkisian's watch, including a former UT assistant who's name has been mentioned as a possibility to take over the defense.

Catch all of that and MUCH more on this week's emergency episode of The Flagship Podcast.
