Steve Sarkisian will likely see many of his players head to the NFL in April, but he won't be following them to the league. The coach has been linked to a series of coaching gigs this offseason, showcasing the level of attention his work in Austin has garnered.

“I didn’t come here to put on a hat to say I’m a head coach again,” Sarkisian said. “It was a long journey to get back to this seat. But I came here — I was very clear in my opening press conference and I’ve been very clear along the way — to win championships.

“We’ve got a lot of unfinished business. I wasn’t entertaining anything that was beyond making sure I had a really good job here and I could solidify the job here and I could hire the best people I could here and I could recruit the best players I could here to go try to do that. I’m proud of the work we’ve done.”

Steve Sarkisian will once again lead Texas to challenge for the national title in 2025 after falling short of the championship game in the last two seasons. The team will also be in the frame for the SEC championship after playing Georgia in the title game in 2024.

Some analysts and bookies seem to believe that the Longhorns are among the favorites to win the national championship next season. With their roster for 2025 and exploits in the past few years, they will definitely be up for it.
