The five-time national champion will remain with the Longhorns as a special assistant to athletic director Mike Perrin.
Despite repeatedly stating that he would not quit, resign, or retire, Texas Longhorns baseball coach Augie Garrido did exactly that on Memorial Day, as the school announced that he relinquished his duties as the head coach and will remain at Texas as a special assistant to athletic director Mike Perrin.
It was the soft landing that Garrido deserves and was always going to receive as Perrin and president Greg Fenves moved quickly to remove Garrido after a season that ended on Saturday tied for the most losses in school history.
