A second appearance in the College Football Playoff semifinals earned Texas Longhorns head coach Steve Sarkisian a second contract extension in the last year as Sarkisian turned down interviews with two NFL teams, news first broken by Brett McMurphy of the Action Network.

“The fact Sarkisian didn’t take any NFL interviews shows his buy-in and commitment to the University of Texas,” a source told McMurphy.
