History of Coaches at UT Austin

History of Longhorn Coaches 1893-2017

 

Below is a chronological listing of all coaches from all sports  since the “beginning” of Longhorn sports thru 2016.  Each sport is color coded.  This was a tedious process to complete, and I want to thank Rick Brimer a TRUE LONGHORN FAN for helping me complete this project.  1893 is the baseline date for Longhorn sports so each page begins with that date.
