Steve Sarkisian is being rewarded by the Texas Longhorns.
The Texas Longhorns are offering head football coach Steve Sarkisian a massive compensation increase and a four-year contract
extension, according to On3.
From $5.6 million in 2023 to $10.3 million in 2024, Sarkisian’s salary will rise, placing him as the third highest paid head coach in
college football. His current contract, which expires in 2030, will be extended by four years as part of the agreement, which also
guarantees him $74.2 million. Sarkisian will get a $1.25 million incentive if Texas wins a national championship in the years 2024–
2030.
Does Texas Finally Appear Under Steve Sarkisian?

were about to collapse again. This time, though, was distinct despite a devastating defeat in a rivalry game with starting quarterback
Quinn Ewers suffering
In 2023, Texas would advance to their first-ever College Football Playoff, but sadly, they would lose 37-31 to Michael Penix and the
Washington Huskies in the national semifinal.
