In a press conference earlier today, Texas Head Coach Steve Sarkisian spoke candidly about the team’s ongoing quarterback situation, hinting at potential changes as the Longhorns prepare for their upcoming matchup against Oklahoma State. With the season hitting the midway point, Sarkisian acknowledged the need for performance evaluations as the team looks to improve on their current 4-2 record.
Sarkisian emphasized the importance of consistency and leadership in the quarterback position, noting that the team’s recent struggles in key games have prompted a reevaluation of their strategy. “We’re always looking for ways to improve and put our players in the best position to succeed,” Sarkisian stated. “Every position is up for competition, and that includes quarterback.”
Currently, the Longhorns have been utilizing a dual-quarterback system, with both players showcasing flashes of potential. However, fans and analysts alike have expressed concern over the lack of offensive rhythm, particularly in high-pressure situations. Sarkisian confirmed that he has been closely monitoring practice performances and is open to making adjustments. “We need someone who can command the offense and make those critical plays when it matters most,” he added.
Looking ahead to the game against Oklahoma State, Sarkisian hinted that a decision could be made by the end of the week. “We want to ensure we have the right guy leading us into this important matchup,” he said. “Our focus is on getting better every day and finding the best fit for our team.”
As the Longhorns aim to regain their footing in the Big 12, all eyes will be on Sarkisian’s decision as it could have significant implications for the remainder of the season.
