Being a high school football coach's son and the starting quarterback at one of the most scrutinized programs in the country, Case McCoy wasn't as surprised as some of his teammates when Mack Brown told them he was stepping down. That's what people expect at this university and we haven't done what we've needed to do.'' Brown will be coaching his 206th and final game at Texas when the Longhorns (8-4) take on No. 10 Oregon (10-2) in the Alamo Bowl on Dec. 30. McCoy struggled in the team's last game, a 30-10 loss to Baylor that kept Texas from claiming its first Big 12 title since McCoy's older brother, Colt, took the Longhorns to the national title game in 2009. Now Texas is trying to help Brown end his 16-year Longhorns coaching career with a victory.
