The Texas Longhorns are getting Arch Manning some serious help in the transfer portal.
Cam Coleman, regarded by many as the top wide receiver in the portal, has committed to Texas. Coleman was a freshman standout at Auburn last season.

Coleman was viewed as one of the top recruits in the country in 2024 when he decided to go to Auburn. In 2025, he caught 56 passes for 708 yards with five touchdowns despite the Tigers’ unsettled quarterback situation, including some highlight-reel plays. He will have two years of eligibility remaining with the Longhorns.
Texas was in need of a high-end receiver, and they hope Coleman can fill that role. The need became even more dire when one of Manning’s most trusted wide receivers opted to leave the team.
Manning took a pay cut for 2026 to allow Texas to build the strongest possible roster for what might be his final year at the school. Coleman certainly fits the bill, and figures to be a major part of Steve Sarkisian’s offense as the Longhorns aim to contend for a national title.
