That’s a tough boss.

Texas announced Saturday it has parted ways with football coach Tom Herman after four seasons, with sources telling ESPN's Chris Low that the Longhorns have zeroed in on Alabama offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian as his replacement and hope to finalize a deal with him soon.

Texas said in a statement that athletic director Chris Del Conte evaluated the program and recommended a change to university president Jay Hartzell. Herman went 32-18 at Texas and 7-3 this past season, which culminated with a win over Colorado in the Valero Alamo Bowl on Tuesday.

"Decisions like this are very, very difficult and certainly not something I take lightly," Del Conte said in a statement. "As I've said before, my philosophy is to wait until the end of the season to look at all of the factors in evaluating any of our programs.

That’s a tough boss.

I know the Texas alumni are probably yearning for yesteryear, but I agree. He certainly wasn't terrible & was heading in the right direction. May be more to this story.

That’s a tough boss.

Herman is a good coach, he'll get another HC job soon. Frankly, I don't see why Sark would be any better at recruiting for Texas, as he was for USC. Be careful, as Herman is the type of coach that beta's like the spawnofalex like.

Edit... reading that Herman and staff have guaranteed contracts of up to 24 mil if they don't do anything next season. Houston obviously a possibility for Herman, if he wants to forgo 15 million.

Herman had the #17 rated recruiting class for 2021. Very solid imo, but I guess it wasn’t good enough.

UTA should be top 5 ranked team every year.
The talent in state, conference played in, and the money involved in the UTA program are unprecedented.

Interesting comment on the hiring of Sarkisian.

Defense doesn't win championships anymore. "Just enough" defense does.

I tend to agree with this. Rules give offense has the advantageous position in football now. Build the O to win.

Okay, looks like there are a handful of games pitting 5 win teams vs. 6 win teams.
Are we rooting for EVERY team to get to 6( and us lose of course)?
