SAD NEWS: Texas Longhorns head coach just summitted his resignation letter to the management.

The Texas Longhorns might have one of the best rosters in college football, but that doesn’t mean it is flawless either.

The Longhorns are currently in an extraordinary situation in the sense that they have been able to replenish their ranks with top tier talent – and in some cases even upgrade – after 11 players moved on and were selected to the NFL.

On the other side of that coin, there is also a tremendous amount of production on both sides of the ball that needs to be replaced.

In fact, there are two areas in particular that head coach Steve Sarkisian believes are of the utmost importance and could ultimately decide their fate next season.

The first and perhaps most obvious area of the two being that of the interior defensive line, where the Longhorns lost two All-American talents in T’Vondre Sweat and Byron Murphy.

Well, I think the biggest one is when you lose those two defensive linemen in the interior of your front with Byron Murphy and, T’Vondre Sweat, how do you replace them?” Sarkisian said in an interview with 247Sports’ Josh Pate.

“I think our depth is really important. And so that was something that we tried to attack in the portal just to solidify the depth of playing more people and not having to rely on just those two.”

And attack that they did, with the Horns getting three defensive tackle commits via the portal in Tiaoalii Savea and Bill Norton from Arizona, and Jermayne Lole from Louisville.

Still, despite the losses of arguably his two best defenders, Sarkisian is confident in what the Horns have brought in, and what they already have in place at the position.
