A new era has arrived for Texas Football. Head coach Steve Sarkisian was officially welcomed to Austin Tuesday morning to start the next chapter of his coaching career with the Longhorns. Sarkisian held his introductory press conference where he discussed everything from his offensive philosophies, which helped lead Alabama to a National Championship win over Ohio State, to his personal life and what he expects to bring to Texas football.
