    Texas offensive coordinator Greg Davis has resigned and two other assistant coaches are retiring after the Longhorns' first losing season since 1997.

    Davis, who has been with coach Mack Brown for 13 seasons at Texas, had been under fire all season as Texas finished 5-7 and didn't qualify for a bowl.

    It was Brown's first losing season since 1989. The Longhorns finished last in the Big 12 South and went 2-5 at home, losing four in a row at one point.

    Offensive line coach Mac McWhorter and defensive line coach and special teams coordinator Mike Tolleson are retiring.

    "These are three special people who have given a lot of themselves and their families to the University of Texas and its football program," Brown said in a statement.

    "They are not only great coaches, but men who handled themselves with tremendous integrity, class and dignity on and off the field during their time here. I want to say thank you and wish them well because they will be missed," Brown said.
