Texas A&M assistant coach expected to get head coaching looks, per report
Published:
Texas A&M coach Mike Elko may have to rebuild part of his coaching staff this offseason.
With the Aggies off to a 9-0 start in 2025, multiple members of Elko’s staff are expected to be in line for promotions at other schools. Offensive coordinator Collin Klein has long been viewed as a potential head coaching candidate, but Holmon Wiggins could also reportedly garner head coaching interest this offseason.
That’s according to The Athletic’s Bruce Feldman, who notes that Wiggins is expected to be a candidate for Group-of-5 head coach vacancies this offseason. Wiggins currently serves as Texas A&M‘s co-offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach.
Here’s what Feldman reported on Friday:
OC Collin Klein isn’t the only Texas A&M assistant coach who is getting consideration for FBS head coaching vacancies. Holmon Wiggins, the Aggies’ 45-year-old co-offensive coordinator/wide receivers coach, has impressed folks in the search process and is in play for Group of 5 jobs. Before coaching in College Station, Wiggins spent five seasons working for Nick Saban at Alabama.

Wiggins, 45, has also worked at programs like Virginia Tech, Memphis and Tulsa. He played running back at New Mexico from 1998-2001. He’s currently in his second season at Texas A&M.
Texas A&M’s offense has been a huge reason for its success this season. The Aggies are averaging 6.71 yards per play this year, which ranks 19th nationally entering Week 12.
