Andre Coleman could help Texas add elements of Kansas State’s offense

Back in late February, the Texas Longhorns made an interesting addition to the support staff with the hire of former Kansas State Wildcats offensive coordinator Andre Coleman as a football analyst.

Coleman spent six years working under former head coach Bill Snyder in Manhattan, mostly as a wide receivers coach and passing game coordinator before calling plays last season. So his expertise is in the passing game, but it’s his knowledge of the unique Kansas State quarterback run game and the passing options built into that are the most intriguing.

Therefore, in addition to the run-pass options that former North Carolina head coach Larry Fedora could help Texas install, Coleman could also help head coach Tom Herman and offensive coordinator Tim Beck add some Kansas State-esque elements to the offense.
