In the ‘Eyes of Texas’ debate, Texas chooses donors instead of doing what’s best for players: The Athletic

Steve Sarkisian was clear in his opening statement at the January press conference introducing him as the new head coach of Texas, the college football program that generates more revenue than any other.

“Everything we are going to do in this program will revolve around what is best for our players,” said Sarkisian. “Our goal is to put our players in the best position to be successful, be it in life, on the football field or in the classroom. They will be the priority of our program and we will make sure we have everything around them to put them in the best position to do that. “

A few minutes later in the same media session, he was asked if the team sang ‘The Eyes of Texas’ after the games.
