Texas coach Steve Sarkisian will be inducted into the Shrine Bowl Hall of Fame on Monday, Jan. 31, along with former Utah wide receiver Steve Smith Sr.

Sarkisian will be in attendance to be honored during the 99th East-West Shrine Bowl game on February 1 at the Ford Center at the Star in Frisco. He'll also have the chance to see tight end Ja'Tavion Sanders and defensive back Ryan Watts play for Team West in the game.

Running back Jonathon Brooks will also be in Frisco taking interviews but will not play as he's still recovering from the torn ACL he suffered against TCU. In addition, former Longhorn and current Chicago Bears special teams coordinator Richard Hightower is serving as head coach of the East team.

Sarkisian led Texas to a 12-2 record in the 2023 season and its first College Football Playoff appearance. In his playing career, the former BYU quarterback completed 549-of-824 passes for 7,755 yards and 55 touchdowns, playing in the 72nd annual East-West Shrine Bowl in 1997.
