The Texas Longhorns made a big splash in the transfer portal this offseason, adding former Auburn wide receiver Cam Coleman to an already talented receiving corps. While some receivers may feel threatened by Coleman's arrival, star wideout Ryan Wingo says he's excited to see what the new addition brings and expects to get more one-on-one chances because of his presence.

Why it matters

The Longhorns' offense struggled at times last season, despite Wingo's impressive production. With the addition of Coleman and other high-profile transfers, Texas is poised to have one of the most talented offenses in college football, which could be crucial in helping quarterback Arch Manning reach his full potential.

The details

Wingo, who led the team in drops last season with seven, is currently recovering from a wrist injury. However, he believes having another offseason to get legitimate reps will only help him improve. The Longhorns' spring game is set for April 18, but it's unclear which star players will participate.
