Texas fires ex-star QB Young after DUI arrest
AUSTIN, Texas -- Texas has fired former star quarterback Vince Young from his part-time role as a development officer for poor performance and often being absent from work or not in touch with his supervisors.
The move also comes after Young had a second drunken-driving arrest within three years on Feb. 4.
Young's March 1 firing letter says he was dismissed "for not demonstrating significant and sustained improvement in the performance of [his] job responsibilities and failing to maintain standards of conduct suitable and acceptable to the university." He had been given job warnings dating back to 2017.
