On Sunday, the nearly month-long search for an offensive coordinator to replace Tim Beck finally ended for head coach Tom Herman and the Texas Longhorns with the addition of Ohio State Buckeyes passing game coordinator Mike Yurcich, the school announced.
“I talked with a number of coaches as we tried to find the best fit at offensive coordinator, and Mike is a guy who really stood out,” Herman said in a statement released by the school. “I’ve admired his work for many years, he’s very highly regarded and respected in the coaching world, and in talking at length with him, I was extremely impressed with what he’ll bring to our staff.
