In a surprising turn of events, rumors have surfaced that Texas Longhorns head coach Steve Sarkisian might be on the brink of leaving the program after reportedly accepting an offer from an NFL team. The news comes just as Sarkisian was beginning to make significant strides with the Longhorns, leading many to wonder what this could mean for the future of the team.
Sarkisian, who took over as head coach of the Longhorns in 2021, has been instrumental in revitalizing the program. Under his leadership, Texas has seen improvements in both recruitment and on-field performance, sparking hopes of a return to national prominence. However, the lure of the NFL appears to have been too strong for Sarkisian to resist.
Details of the NFL offer have not been made public, but it is believed to be a lucrative deal that offers Sarkisian the chance to prove himself on football’s biggest stage. While this move could be a great opportunity for Sarkisian, it leaves the Longhorns in a difficult position, scrambling to find a new leader who can continue the upward trajectory he started.
