Klein Out, Wiggins In at Texas A&M | Texas A&M Aggies Football News
Description
Collin Klein, former Texas A&M offensive coordinator, has jumped to Kansas State as head coach — a move made just weeks before the Aggies’ College Football Playoff game. Klein’s offense at A&M averaged over 30 points per game, powered by QB Marcel Reed’s 3,000-yard, 25-touchdown season. KSU, where Klein starred and was a Heisman finalist, moved quickly after Chris Klieman’s departure. Texas A&M’s Mike Elko has promoted Holmon Wiggins — a former Alabama receivers coach and Klein’s longtime co-coordinator — to take over. Though Wiggins hasn’t called plays before, he’ll retain Klein’s system with a potential emphasis on the run, leveraging stars like Rueben Owens and Jamarion Morrow. Wiggins is ranked 15th nationally among offensive coordinators, behind top-tier names like Ryan Grubb (Alabama) and Buster Faulkner (Florida).
