Clemson has Bakich under contract through 2030. He got locked down when his name started surfacing as a candidate for the Texas job. Mingione is under contract through 2029. I’m sure State would have to pay through the nose to snag a coach from within the conference.

You can’t forget three blocked PATs. It’s closer to the forefront. -
I somehow repressed that one somewhere deep in my mind.

If you think about how Archie Manning played the game, Sark said, that's what Arch brings to the table. They need to find the right balance of when to take advantage of Arch's athleticism, mainly doing it on third down and in the red zone.

Sark loves that Texas can go into "talent-rich areas" like Florida, Georgia and Louisiana and get players who can help Texas compete for a championship.

"I own it as a play-caller, but then as a head coach, too," he said. "I don't have many people to be mad at outside of myself because that's my job, to get them to execute."
-
Sark is asked about the goal-line series against Ohio State. He said he evaluates every play-call of every game by himself and with the staff.
-
Sark believes the Texas offensive line is "as talented as anybody else's in the country."
-
Sark said the Longhorns are fortunate that Trevor Goosby got some quality snaps last year.

Sark corrected someone who asked a question about the offensive line, noting that the Longhorns are inexperienced, not young.
-
Sark is talking about the A&M game. "There's nothing like going on the road and singing 'The Eyes of Texas' after a win," he said.

Sark said everyone needs to let Arch have fun and enjoy being the quarterback at Texas. "I hope he can have an opportunity to enjoy it and enjoy it the right way."
-
Sark: "I hope it's a no-brainer to come back to school, if you know what I mean."
-
Sark is asked whether he has a feel for how long Arch will be at Texas. "I hope he's got a really hard decision to make around Jan. 21," he said.
