5 reasons why the Texas Longhorns are the next College Football dynasty

The Texas Longhorns are coming off of their first appearance in the history of the College Football Playoff. What is even scarier is that they are now in the SEC which will elevate their program even more. This combined with head coach Steve Sarkisian's ability to recruit and several other factors make the Longhorns primed to be the next dynasty in college football. I provide my top five reasons why in this article.

Steve Sarkisian’s success with the Texas Longhorns

After resurrecting his career as a head coach in Austin, Steve Sarkisian has a full tank of gas and the pedal to the floor since his arrival it seems. Under Sarkisian, the Longhorns have improved incrementally each year.

After going 6-7 in year one, they went 8-5 in year two and 12-2 this past year. Sarkisian also led the Longhorns to the College Football Playoff for the first time since its inception.

Texas Longhorn Recruiting Classes under Steve Sarkisian

Since his arrival in 2021, the Longhorns recruiting classes have ranked fifth (2022), third (2023) and sixth (2024). It is clear as I mentioned that both by performance on the field and off of it, Sarkisian and the Longhorns are doing everything right.
