TCU athletic director Chris Del Conte will take over the same position at Texas, the school announced Saturday.

Del Conte will replace Mike Perrin, who took over on an interim basis in 2015 after Steve Patterson was fired.

In 2009, Del Conte took over at TCU and oversaw the Horned Frogs' transition into the Big 12 Conference three years later.

Del Conte also oversaw multiple facility upgrades including the $164 million construction of the new Amon G. Carter.

TCU also recently completed a $72 million renovation of its football facility.
