Summary

Rod Babers, Matt Butler and Jeff Howe are back to discuss the retirement of Nick Saban and how it has and continues to impact Texas. How close was Steve Sarkisian to leaving the Forty Acres? With a new contract extension, Sarkisian has taken what he learned from Saban, put his spin on it and has the Longhorns in the national championship hunt, showing how coaches can reinvent themselves and reach their potential. The show ends with some football theory talk with the revelation that Duane Akina seems likely to return to Arizona under new head coach Brent Brennan rather than join Sarkisian's staff in an analyst role. For more on Texas football, including the latest Longhorn recruiting information, head over to Horns247.
