Sarkisian, Arch, and the ESPN Fiasco | Wilmington News

Description

Texas coach Steve Sarkisian sparked a social media frenzy after abruptly cutting off ESPN’s Holly Rowe mid-interview following a big win over Ohio State, later admitting he should’ve waited for her questions. The incident fueled viral AI videos mocking him — including fake footage of him slapping Rowe — which Arch Manning found funny but then quickly apologized for, calling his remarks insensitive. Sarkisian also issued an apology, praising Rowe and ESPN while clarifying that Texas absolutely condemns violence against women. He also mentioned a halftime tech delay that may have contributed to his frustration. Laura Rutledge was seen trying to stop him from leaving. Both men have since made amends, and the Longhorns are focused on their momentum as a top national contender.
