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, who previously played at Auburn, after a viral practice catch highlighted his potential as the Longhorns' biggest portal acquisition this season.
- Following two losing seasons at Auburn, Coleman entered the transfer portal seeking the College Football Playoff, having recorded 1,306 yards and 13 touchdowns over two years.
- Texas coach Steve Sarkisian compared Coleman's 6-foot-3, 205 pounds frame to former NFL star Julio Jones, while quarterback Arch Manning reportedly accepted less revenue sharing money to recruit the 'freak athlete.'
- During the summer, Manning led teammates, including Coleman, on a bonding trip to New Orleans for informal throwing sessions at Tulane, integrating him into a receiving corps with Ryan Wingo, Emmett Mosely, and Jermaine Bishop.
- Replicating the success of 2023 transfer Adonai Mitchell is the goal as Coleman prepares for a marquee matchup in Austin on Sept. 12 against Ohio State receiver Jeremiah Smith; both are preseason All-Americans.
