The announcement was made a few minutes ago in a statement from the university.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Sarkisian, who has been at the helm of the Longhorns since 2021, cited personal reasons for his decision. In his statement, Sarkisian mentioned that after careful consideration and reflection, he felt it was in the best interest of both himself and the team to step down at this time. The coach emphasized that this decision was not made lightly and that he remains deeply committed to the well-being of the players and staff.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Under Sarkisian&#8217;s leadership, the Longhorns experienced a mix of highs and lows, with notable victories but also significant challenges.
