Texas fires David Pierce after eight seasons
Following a 36-24 season that included early exits from the Big 12 Tournament and the College Station Regional, Texas Longhorns head coach David Pierce was fired on Monday morning after eight seasons and a 297-162 record on the Forty Acres.
“CDC and I met after the season and we mutually agreed that the best thing for the program was to go in a different direction. It’s been an honor and privilege to lead this program for the last eight years. It certainly is a time I will always cherish as a coach, and I am so appreciative of The University of Texas for the opportunity,” Pierce said in a statement released by the school.
