Steve Sarkisian Monday Press Conference (Nov. 4)


Recommended Posts

  • Moderators

Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian is back in front of the microphone today for his weekly press conference.

The Longhorns will host Florida this weekend as they return from their second, and final, bye week of the season. Florida lost to Georgia in Jacksonville over the weekend, but most importantly, might have lost their starting quarterback, DJ Lagway, for the season due to injury.

Notes and quotes in the comments down below.

On the possibility of Lagway not playing:

Sarkisian says Texas will prepare for the scheme and the Longhorns must approach the gameplan vs. the Gators, rather than the quarterback itself.

Sarkisian: "Our mojo offensively is one thing that I really want to get back."

Says sometimes there is an "over-try" that hurts the swagger and mojo of the offense. But if Texas can get back to where they were earlier in the year to combine with the defense, they will be in good shape.

On Jahdae Barron's decision to return, Sarkisian says he hopes all of his players went through the process that Barron did. Not just seeing mock drafts online, but hearing from NFL Draft Scouts and their written reports.

"I think Jahdae has made himself a lot of money coming back (for 2024)."

On the SEC new rule of fining coaches for "false injuries"

Sarkisian says Texas really has not been affected by opponents trying to doctor up timeouts with fake injuries. Says it is not something that he condones in his program.

Steve Sarkisian on Quinn Ewers during the bye week and reviewing the Vandy tape: "He looks fresh, he looks healthy... I thought he was intentional with his feet and his base against Vanderbilt and it showed."

"What I loved about today's practice is the spirit, the energy, the intent."

 

Sarkisian says he didn't want the bye week to bleed into a game week and he didn't feel like it did on Monday's practice.

It worries me it’s an IF. 
 

Texas is DOA without electric offense.
