Former TCU coach Gary Patterson will be joining Texas coach Steve Sarkisian's staff in an off-field role as special assistant to the head coach, according to ESPN's Chris Low.
The Austin American-Stateman's Brian Davis first reported on Tuesday that Patterson was expected to join the Longhorns program.
Texas will bring in Patterson following the coach's two-decade stint with the Horned Frogs. Patterson posted a 181–79 record with TCU from 2000–21, tallying 10-plus wins 11 times.
