Texas announces nearly-completed coaching staff under Steve Sarkisian

On Friday, new Texas Longhorns head coach Steve Sarkisian announced his nearly-completed coaching staff that now features nine assistant coaches and the Director of Football performance, Torre Becton.

The only remaining opening on the staff is at linebackers coach, which Sarkisian will not fill with Alabama Crimson Tide analyst Mike Stoops, the former Oklahoma Sooners defensive coordinator, despite a report on late Thursday indicating that Stoops was expected to leave for Austin.

It’s a deeply experienced group with an impressive track record of success — 180 years experience coaching in college, and 208 years of coaching experience overall, 93 bowl game appearances, 11 CFP playoff games, and seven National Championship games with six national title wins.
