James Huffines, son of the late Dallas auto dealer J.L. Huffines, says he’s stepping down from his position as chairman of the University of Texas System Board of Regents. Huffines, who’s also a honcho with Dallas-based PlainsCapital Bank, explained his surprise decision this way: “I’m burned out.” Gotta give him points for candor.
