Steve Sarkisian will be shaking up his staff a bit after his first season at Texas.
After hiring Tashard Choice as the running backs coach to replace new Temple head coach Stan Drayton, Sark has decided to move on from wide receivers coach Andre Coleman. The news was first reported by TFB on Sunday evening.

Coleman has served as the wide receiver coach for two seasons as one of the few holdovers from Tom Herman’s staff.
Texas saw wide receiver Xavier Worthy breakout as a freshman All-American this season but failed to get much production outside of him.
Coleman also really struggled on the recruiting trail. Texas signed four-star wideout Brenen Thompson but missed out on priority target Evan Stewart and multiple others. There is no doubt that Sark wants to see recruiting improvement at the position.
The next wide receivers coach will not have to worry about a lack of talent. Xavier Worthy, Jordan Whittington, Marcus Washington and Brenen Thompson make up a solid core to work with.
