  1. Agree that it appears aggy likely keeps Klein's offensive system with a few tweaks...
  2. Portal no longer available in spring/summer... Multiple podcasts are having discussions about Week Zero Bowl games, but not sure it's worth the injury risks...
  3. Other coaching changes mentioned in below article... Aggies elevate Wiggins to OC with Klein heading to K-State Associated Press Dec 15, 2025 COLLEGE STATION, Texas -- Holmon Wiggins has been promoted to offensive coordinator for Texas A&M. Wiggins, who was the co-offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach, will take over for Collin Klein, who was recently hired as Kansas State's coach following the retirement of Chris Klieman. Klein will remain with the Aggies throughout the College Football Playoff and coach Mike Elko said Monday that he will continue to call plays despite the promotion of Wiggins. Seventh-seeded Texas A&M will make its playoff debut Saturday when the Aggies host No. 10 seed Miami. Elko said they interviewed multiple people for the job before landing on Wiggins. "Really felt like the right person for the job was Holmon Wiggins," Elko said. "We've elevated him to the offensive coordinator position, and he's the only person we offered the job to. ... We felt that was the best thing for Texas A&M football moving forward." Before joining Elko at Texas A&M last season, Wiggins spent five seasons at Alabama as the wide receivers coach and also served as the assistant head coach of offense for his final three seasons there. The move comes after Elko promoted Lyle Hemphill from associate head coach for defense to defensive coordinator Friday after Jay Bateman was hired for the same role at Kentucky. Bateman will also remain with the Aggies through the playoffs. And this guy might come to A&M to assist with offense... Sources: Texas A&M targeting experienced play-caller for offensive support staff By Zach Barnett Dec 15, 2025 Texas A&M is targeting Brad Cornelson for a senior role on its offensive support staff, sources told FootballScoop on Monday. Cornelson would be expected to support newly-minted offensive coordinator Holmon Wiggins, who was formally elevated from wide receivers coach to coordinator on Monday following Colin Klein's acceptance of the Kansas State head coaching position. Wiggins and Cornelson worked together on Justin Fuente's Memphis and Virginia Tech staffs from 2012-18; Cornelson coached the quarterbacks and served as the offensive coordinator at Virginia Tech, while Wiggins coached the wide receivers at both spots. Wiggins left after the 2018 season to coach wide receivers on Nick Saban's Alabama staff in 2019, while Cornelson remained at Virginia Tech through the end of Fuente's run in 2021. Cornelson then spent 2023-24 as the offensive coordinator at Sam Houston, and led the Bearkats to a win over Georgia Southern in the 2024 New Orleans Bowl after KC Keeler took the Temple job. He spent the 2025 season as the head coach at Enid High School in Oklahoma. Cornelson was the offensive coordinator at Northeastern State, a Division II school in Oklahoma, from 2009-11. Wiggins, a former New Mexico running back who has been in coaching since 2003, will be a first-time offensive coordinator for the Aggies in 2026.
  4. Texas Bowl defense definitely gonna be a youth movement... Crossposting... At least 7 defensive players that have starts during 2025 season won't be playing in the Citrus Bowl: Anthony Hill LeFau Taaffe T.Moore Manny Muhammad Burke Guilbeau Have fun PK 🤘
  5. Personnel move by Auburn... Sources: Auburn lands top young executive for key off-field role By John Brice Dec 16, 2025 Alex Golesh continues to assemble quite the first-year staff for his inaugural season atop the Auburn Tigers football program. Golesh's right-hand man, Andrew Warsaw, the Tigers' general manager, is making his own major moves for the Auburn program as well. Multiple sources tell FootballScoop that Golesh, Warsaw and the Tigers are hiring Luke Haker, one of the top, up-and-coming directors of football operations in collegiate athletics, for Auburn's DFO position. It was just earlier this fall that Haker was nominated for FootballScoop's annual DFO of the Year award by his current boss, record-setting Austin Peay coach Jeff Faris. "Luke Haker is as relentless, organized and forward-thinking as anyone I've been around," Faris, at the time of his nomination of Haker, told FootballScoop. "Players love him. He handles every component of operations seamlessly. "As the head coach, he takes so much off my plate it allows me to focus on what I love most. His work ethic and ability to stay one step ahead are unmatched." Already with experience in the NFL at the Cleveland Browns and in the Southeastern Conference at Mississippi State, Haker also is set to be reunited on the Plains with Warsaw -- his longtime mentor. He's worked with some of college football's new wave of ascending head coaches. In addition to his time as chief of staff and director of team operations at Austin Peay for Faris the past two years, Haker also served as assistant director of football operations for Charles Huff at Marshall from 2021-22. There, Haker was part of the Marshall Thundering Herd team that shocked the college football world with its win at then-nationally ranked Notre Dame -- a triumph that prompted West Virginia's governor to call Huff and the Herd on their flight home. Haker is a Mississippi State alum.
  6. Neal Brown bringing a state champion high school coach to North Texas By Zach Barnett Dec 17, 2025 North Crowley (Texas) High School head coach Ray Gates is joining Neal Brown's new North Texas staff, according to a report on Wednesday from Matt Stepp of Dave Campbell's Texas Football. Viewed as one of the rising stars in Texas high school coaching, Gates went 54-4 in his four seasons at North Crowley, his first head coaching job. Located just south of Fort Worth, the Panthers went 7-4 and finished in third place in their district prior to his arrival, and did not post a winning record from 2006-19. Gates first North Crowley team went 12-1 and reached the regional semifinals, and the Panthers then went 14-1 and fell in the state semifinals in 2023. The 2024 outfit went 16-0 and won the Class 6A Division I state championship. North Crowley is the only school other than Duncanville, Galena Park North Shore or Austin Westlake to win the championship in Texas's largest classification since 2017. They became the first Greater Fort Worth school to win a state championship since their own 4A title in 2003. Gates was named the MaxPreps national coach of the year following last season. Ironically, Gates's North Crowley tenure ended at his new place of work; the Panthers lost to Allen in the Region I final on Dec. 5. He's expected to serve as a special assistant to head coach Brown at North Texas while also working with the Mean Green's edge defenders. Gates was the defensive coordinator at Cedar Hill, Joey McGuire's former school, before landing the North Crowley job. He previously served as a graduate assistant at West Texas A&M.
  7. Michigan fans need to lose the phrase "Michigan Man" 😎 Just makes me laugh at them more... 😋
  8. Massive 2025 OL roster evaluation failure by Flood/Sark and folks in roster personnel group. Seems like a good time for CDC and Sark to beef up the general manager and player evaluation group.
  9. For folks in the know... Juluke vs Frank Wilson as RB coaches and recruiters???
  10. Moore if goes to NFL now is maybe late Day 3 or more likely UFA... He better wise up and find another college gig for 2026. Btw I also previously heard the same 2025 NIL crap Moore pulled as mentioned above by @someguy (Moore threatened to transfer near the end of the portal window last year and leveraged a pay bump) I'm glad Texas didn't elect to have Moore return for 2026 -- really hope we find a much more explosive WR to replace him.
  11. LeFau rumored to be transferring to BYU...
  12. Kinda reading between the lines either: Texas said no gty on starting, or LeFau's NIL offer not enough Except for ohio state and aggy games, LeFau may have not graded out that well. Horns likely looking to upgrade at LB thru portal, plus Texas added a stud freshman LB to the roster in 2026 class.
  13. At least 7 defensive players that have starts during 2025 season won't be playing in the Citrus Bowl: Anthony Hill LeFau Taaffe T.Moore Manny Muhammad Burke Guilbeau Have fun PK 🤘
  14. Inevitable... with playoffs and NIL, CFB will punish ND till they join a conference.
