At this point, the wishes of first-year Texas Longhorns head coach Steve Sarkisian should almost certainly be honored without question. As evident by his lengthy track record of developing quarterbacks into truly elite college stars and NFL prospects, Sarkisian’s reputation as a quarterback guru is well deserved. Since helping groom Matt Leinart into a Heisman winner and one of the great gunslingers to play college football, Sarkisian’s roles have allowed him to help develop three more top-10 draft picks — Mark Sanchez, Jake Locker, and Tua Tagovailoa — and most recently, help mold former three-star prospect Mac Jones into a potential first round pick.
