President Trump is coming to Texas-Tennessee game. How will it impact Longhorns?

Texas Longhorns coach Steve Sarkisian has explained how the presence of President Trump at Saturday's SEC football game in Knoxville against Tennessee could impact his team. While the coach said it won't affect their logistical preparations, he acknowledged the need for a communication plan in case the president enters, exits, or moves within the stadium.

This will be the second time Sarkisian has coached in a game with Trump in attendance. He hopes for a better outcome than the 46-41 loss his team suffered during Trump's first presidential term when he attended LSU's game against Alabama. Despite the presidential visit, Sarkisian believes his players should enjoy the festivities and then refocus on the game.
