It appears the Longhorns have narrowed in on a potential tight ends and special teams coach. Although the current special teams coordinator and running backs coach at Oklahoma, Jay Boulware has previous ties to the University of Texas.
According to Rivals.com reporter Anwar Richardson, head coach Tom Herman could sway Boulware back to where his coaching career began.
Oklahoma special teams coordinator Jay Boulware has emerged into the leading candidate to coach the position and tight ends at Texas, according to my sources. Boulware has coached RBs and special teams at Oklahoma since 2013. In addition, he coached tight ends from 2013 to 2014. pic.twitter.com/dZVOgbDuNY

Boulware was a backup offensive tackle at Texas in 1991-92, before his collegiate career was prematurely ended due to cardiac arrhythmia. As a student-athlete, Boulware became a student-assistant coach before ultimately working with the tight ends as a graduate assistant in 1996.
An extensive resume of Boulware’s coaching experience includes Stanford, Auburn, Utah, and Oklahoma.
