Coleman & Texas WRs Top Ohio State's Smith

0:00It's April 1st. Auburn Tigers football news today starts now, AI powered and ready for kickoff. Cam Coleman, the former Auburn-wide receiver who transferred to Texas, just got a huge shout-out from CVS Sports Analyst Brad Crawford. Crawford ranks him as the number three receiver in all of college football for next season, right behind Ohio State's Jeremiah Smith and Miami's Malachi Tony. That move to the long horns, Crawford says, gives Texas the deepest wide receiver group in the country, snatching the crown from the Buckeyes who've held it for years. Coleman was the top transfer in the class, picking Texas and a big NIL deal over other offers to team up with quarterback Arch Manning. As a five-star recruit, number two receiver and number five overall in the 2024 class, he put up 93 catches for 1,000. Three six yards and 13 touchdowns in 23 games at Auburn, even with shaky quarterback play. Fans and analysts are buzzing about this Texas versus Ohio State wide-out showdown.

1:02Ohio State still has a lead talent from Brian Hartline's recruiting days, even after he left for USF. But Texas counters with returning studs, Ryan Wingo, and Emmett Mosley, the fifth, who combined for over 1,200 yards and 10 touchdowns last year. Spring ball showed Coleman fitting right in, unlocking his potential in Austin, while Freshman's remained bishop is emerging as a riser. Ohio State brings back Smith, who had 1,243 yards and 12 scorers solo, plus blue chip adds like Chris Henry Jr. And your quad and gilford, breakout brought void, and transfers Kyle Parker from LSU and Devon McQuinn from UTSA. This WR battle sets up epic matchups ahead, especially with manning slinging into that loaded Texas crew college football's depth chart just got way. More interesting for 2026.
