With his eyes on a return to the sidelines, former Baylor head coach Art Briles has hired super agent Jimmy Sexton, according to ESPN's Mark Schlabach.

Sexton represents several high-profile NCAA coaches, including Florida State's Jimbo Fisher, USC's Clay Helton, and Georgia's Kirby Smart.

Briles was fired by Baylor over the summer as the football program's sexual assault scandal unfolded, but the 60-year-old has said he expects to find employment at the NFL or NCAA level by next year.

Briles posted a 65-37 record in eight seasons at Baylor, after going 34-28 in five years at Houston.
