One year after inking the largest contract ever given to a Longhorns assistant, Texas defensive coordinator Todd Orlando is reportedly set to hit the bank again, per Pete Thamel of Yahoo Sports.

Reports of discussions between Orlando and Texas come a day after Texas A&M made a splash in the coordinator market, signing former Notre Dame defensive coordinator Mike Elko to a three-year deal, with an average annual salary of $1.8 million.

Orlando's defense shined in his first year on the 40 Acres, surrendering just over 21 points per game, good for No. 29 in the nation. No Longhorn team cracked the top 30 in opponent points per game since 2009. Texas limited opposing teams to under 20 points six times, including in the season finale win over Missouri in the Texas Bowl.

Texas' defensive signal caller currently sits as the No. 14 highest paid assistant in the nation. A deal to put him in the top five would likely start at over $1.3 million annually.

Reports as of Friday afternoon have Orlando set to make nearly $2 million per year, a figure that would make him the highest paid assistant in the nation.
