During his initial press conference where UT announced White as their new AD, he said the school was going to “be aggressive.”
Heupel coached three seasons at UCF finishing with a record of 28-8. Before coming to UCF, Heupel spent several years as offensive coordinator at the University of Missouri and his alma mater Oklahoma.
Heupel was runner-up for the Heisman Trophy in 2000 when Oklahoma won the national championship.
