Texas landed big catch in WR Cam Coleman as No. 5 Longhorns chase return to playoff
Cam Coleman caught 93 passes for 1,306 yards and 13 touchdowns at Auburn before joining a Texas receiving group that already includes Ryan Wingo.
- Texas added transfer wide receiver Cam Coleman from Auburn, with a viral practice catch recently showcasing the athleticism that made him the Longhorns' biggest portal acquisition this season.
- Following two losing seasons at Auburn, Coleman entered the transfer portal seeking the College Football Playoff; he recorded 1,306 yards and 13 touchdowns over two years with the Tigers.
- Texas coach Steve Sarkisian compared Coleman's 6-foot-3, 205 pounds size and athleticism to former NFL star Julio Jones. Quarterback Arch Manning reportedly accepted less revenue sharing money to help recruit the 'freak athlete.'
- Over the summer, Manning led receivers including Coleman on a bonding trip to New Orleans for informal throwing sessions at Tulane. Coleman joins a corps featuring Ryan Wingo, Emmett Mosely, and Jermaine Bishop.
- Hopes are high Coleman will replicate the 2023 success of transfer Adonai Mitchell, who helped Texas reach the College Football Playoff. He faces preseason All-American Jeremiah Smith of Ohio State in Austin on Sept. 12.
