Jerome Miron / USA TODAY Sports

Houston won't be interviewing Art Briles after all.

Reports surfaced Saturday morning that Briles was going to be interviewed for the head coaching position, along with Les Miles and Lane Kiffin, but things have apparently changed.

Board chair Tilman Fertitta was hoping to interview Briles, but the president and athletic director said said no, ESPN's Brett McMurphy reports.

Fertitta later denied that was the case.

The former Baylor head coach was let go by the Bears after an investigation into how the program handled sexual assault allegations.
