## Resource

Texas football’s future hangs in the balance as head coach Steve Sarkisian faces mounting pressure, fueled by a $60 million buyout and mounting criticism from analyst Mike Bratton. Bratton questions whether elite recruits like Cam Coleman and Hollywood Smothers joined Texas for academics—or to shield the program if results fail, echoing past patterns like Florida’s Billy Napier. With Arch Manning’s supporting cast being assembled and a brutal schedule ahead—including Ohio State, Oklahoma, and a grueling SEC slate—the stakes are sky-high. If Texas doesn’t deliver on the field, Sarkisian’s job could be in serious jeopardy. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
