Larry Coker, who once led the Miami Hurricanes to a BCS championship (and was one garbage pass-interference call way from leading them to another), is hoping to get another shot at running a college football program.The University of Texas - San Antonio recently approved the addition of a football program, with hopes to play their home games in the Alamodome starting in 2011. The UTSA Roadrunners will start as a Division I FCS program before looking to transition into becoming a Division I BCS team. (Basically, they want to start as a 1-AA team before playing with the big boys.)Coker, who is now 60 years old, expressed interest in the job a little over a month ago. San Antonio is the largest city in the United States without a NFL or Division I football team.
