$24 million for a guy who won 56% of his games as a head coach at Washington and USC?  I'm wondering if Texas needs to make changes higher up in order to get back to the glory days....

This was my thought as well.  He did ok at Washington, though after Petersen won an average of 9.5 games a year after Sarkisian (who averaged 6.8 the preceding five) left, his accomplishments look less ok.  At USC, his mediocre season plus was overshadowed by his off the field issues.

In any case, I hope Sarkisian is now healthy and sober.
