Texas lands top prospect in transfer portal

Auburn transfer wide receiver Cam Coleman committed to Texas on Sunday, giving the Longhorns a pledge from the top-ranked player in the 2026 transfer portal. Coleman, a former five-star prospect in the 2024 class, caught 56 passes for 708 yards and five touchdowns as a sophomore in 2025. He posted 37 receptions for 598 yards and eight touchdowns as a true freshman in 2024. 

What makes Coleman’s numbers more impressive is the quarterback situation during his time at Auburn, which was laughable over the last two years under Hugh Freeze, who was fired during the 2025 season. Coleman, listed at 6-foot-4 and 201 pounds, is a physical specimen with track speed and an NFL future. He’ll instantly be the top target for QB Arch Manning.
