Texas coach Steve Sarkisian is in hot water after a video went viral on Friday showing the Longhorns’ coach berating a crew member in the tunnel before the team’s loss to Washington in Thursday night’s Alamo Bowl.

As Sarkisian is preparing to lead his team out of the tunnel prior to kickoff, a crew member wearing a headset was seen putting his hand on the Texas coach’s chest to let him know that they should wait to run out of the tunnel.

What seemed innocuous turned heated when Sarkisian apparently took offense to the crew member’s actions and began yelling obscenities at the individual.

Sarkisian exploded, and was seen mouthing, “Don’t f—ing touch me again motherf----r. Get your f—ing hands off me.”

It certainly is not a good look for the Texas coach, who then subsequently lost the bowl game to finish his second season on the job with an 8–5 record. In two seasons in Austin, Sarkisian is just 13–12 since taking over for previous coach Tom Herman. For reference, Herman was 17–10 in his first two seasons at the helm for the Longhorns.

Watching the rest of the bowl season with competent OLs, WR, EDGE, & LB is downright depressing given our shittastic performance last night. 

yeah man. came here to post just this. just seent the highlights of the pitt QB going down the field in 30 secs to setup the FG. great, long sideline throw for like 25 yards as the main big play. i had zero confidence we would do anything like that at the end of our game. 

we are always soft on the OL. always. even in '05. those guys were the best we had and I would say they were average to good, but not great. 

huskies oline and running scheme was strong, fast and decisive. it was nice to see, i guess

Aggy is all over this. That confirms it’s nothing to be upset about. What is 100 times more offensive is abandoning the run game. Fucking idiot.

You make it seem we had a run game to abandon.

if you're wondering about sark Tennessee just hit 11 wins, year two of Heupel. They'll be top 5 next season 

They also had a 35 year old QB that was in year 2 of the offense, he was 7-6 in his 1st year as the starter when he was 28.

We fired the guy who got us a pre-season top 10 ranking going into year three.

We're Texas!

Hell, that actually make me like him more.

Before I was like "fire his ass"!

Now I'm more like "promote him to Assistant AD" and hire a new coach.

Headset guy gonna have a bodyguard next game he works. Could be  a NIL opportunity.

The AAD job transfer might fit in the contract language to not apply to "firing", and allow Patterson to take the HC job and hire Riley Minor as OC. Win-win-win.

Someone said Sark's preceding HC job started to unravel after an earlier loss to UW - true dat?

Well his last game as USC HC was a loss to Washington and he was fired the next day.  But it was unraveling before that when he apparently showed up drunk to a booster function during fall camp and then to some football activities including practices.  He was also allegedly drunk on the sideline for the game before Washington, which they won.

Yup. Bellmont doesn’t fuck around. 
 

He’s done after next year if he wins less than 8. Without Bijan? I’d bet on it.

Who then went 8-5 with a stud upperclassman QB. Are you actually trying to argue we fired a coach as good as Heupel? Or did you just get lost in a word salady condensed version of every other post you make on the football board?

Preseason rankings. lol. That must be what helped Top Ten Tom land his next big p5 gig. He got the Cincinatti/Nebraska/ASU/Colorado/Wiscinsin/Purdue job right?

Yeah that was embarrassing. Reminds me of a chihuahua.

Knowing that absolute dipshit HCs like Orgeron and Smart have recruited their way to championships is the only thing that gives me hope for Sark. He’s somewhere between Strong and Herman as a game day coach, but at least he seems to be a far better recruiter. I hope he can keep it up.

We hired an extremely likeable buffoon then overcorrected to a guy who is clearly universally loathed in his profession.  The interesting thing is we appear not to have overcorrected from that guy, at least as far as the west coast is concerned.

If only they handed out wins based off meaningless preseason rankings. We would be 10-2 every year.

Last year it was Aranda and Pittman and we saw what they did this year. 2 years don’t make a program.

^That comment has zero to do with our own coach

If I'm Steve's PR guy, I tell him to tweet this image and a light-hearted apology to the headset guy. "Got a little fired up before the game. Hope there aren't any hard feelings."   Gotta laugh our way through this one, guys.

 

 

No response from Sark is right thing to do. 

Just pull up all the irate videos of Saban if yah need to be reminded about a bunch of dumb shit coaches do during games and press conferences.

This is a non story after this weekend -- Sark and CDC should just ignore it. 🤘
