For Texas Longhorns defensive coordinators, history tends to repeat itself in three-year cycles of failure.
Manny Diaz was fired two games into his third season in 2013 and Vance Bedford was relieved of his duties four games into the 2016 season.
Now, in 2019, the narrative of Todd Orlando’s tenure in Austin, at the least, is hanging on the brink as the Horns struggle in particular to make tackles or otherwise achieve in traditional metrics.
I conservatively counted 21 missed tackles for #Texas vs OU. As a result of those missed tackles the #Longhorns allowed 195 additional yards, along w/ 7 additional first downs & 2 additional TDs.
