February 25, 20196 yr Spent six years under Bill Snyder, most of them as WRs coach but was their playcaller last season.
February 25, 20196 yr Is there a limit on analyst? Just curious if these new hires are replacing other analyst or are we just building an army.

February 25, 20196 yr K-State has always been a very well disciplined team that did a good job NOT shooting themselves in the junk with stupid penalties. If all this guy does is bring in a method of practice that reduces false starts then it's worth every burnt orange penny.
February 25, 20196 yr Author Ian Boyd on the Coleman hire: Andre Coleman, 2018 OC for the Kansas State Wildcats, is the most recent coach to take a job as an analyst for Tom Herman at Texas. The 2018 season was a rough one for the Wildcats on offense. They had a strong OL and a stud RB in Alex Barnes, but they wasted much of the early season (to Coleman's frustration) trying to use Alex Delton as a QB when he was basically hopeless at executing their passing game. Eventually Bill Snyder gave way and they made Skylar Thompson the full-time QB and retooled the offense around RPOs and QB keepers around the edge rather than the downhill QB power run game. Once Barnes was established as the main feature of the offense (after the Texas game), K-State went 3-4 and their back broke 100 rushing in every game save for against Oklahoma. Coleman was once a star WR at Kansas State in the early 90s when Snyder's trick for getting ahead of everyone was by using a spread passing game before it was cool and ubiquitous. He wanted to return the Wildcats to that strategy with Skylar Thompson but Snyder's resistance and ultimately his retirement thwarted that plan. Thompson only broke 200 yards passing twice all year and their collection of WRs was diminished without Byron Pringle as a deep ball threat. Overall Coleman brings some of the Snyder wizardry, a knack for spread-iso passing in particular, and also a lot of institutional knowledge of the Big 12 in general. Snyder's understanding of the league and collection of gameplans for every opponent is a treasure trove and to access even some of it via Coleman would be immensely valuable for Herman's staff.
February 25, 20196 yr K States run game was definitely unique, I never saw anyone run the ball quite like them until Herman at Ohio State.
February 25, 20196 yr Another guy that provides a different approach to one of Herman's core offensive principals.

February 25, 20196 yr I mean he’s gonna help in terms of attacking our defense as well and point out weaknesses there. Solid hire!

CDC has already put in a plan to reduce overall AD head count, some of which gets shifted to these analyst positions. I hope basketball and baseball can get some of this sort of help as well.

February 25, 20196 yr Good hire. Plus I am sure he has some knowledge of Midwestern players and schools.
February 25, 20196 yr 3 hours ago, texifornia said: Special Teams help too..... "Coleman's primary role during his NFL career was as a kick returner, gaining 4,466 yards and two touchdowns returning kickoffs. He also added 384 yards and a touchdown returning punts, and caught 43 passes for 602 yards and three touchdowns. As a rookie, Coleman played in Super Bowl XXIX with the Chargers and set several Super Bowl records in the game: most kickoff returns (8), most return yards (244), and most total yards (244). Coleman had a 98-yard kickoff return for a touchdown in the game, tied for the second longest kickoff return in Super Bowl history." Edited February 25, 20196 yr by LTtxfan
February 26, 20196 yr This is a damn good hire. K-State had a lot of success in the kickoff/punt return game with guys like Lockett, Burns, Pringle and Reed. One of our biggest weaknesses has been punt/kick returns and Coleman will really help in that area. Edited February 26, 20196 yr by texasstrong12
February 26, 20196 yr Author Just now, Nowhichski said: Does he have a role in recruiting? Or no, just analysis? He can interact with recruits when they are on campus, but I imagine his primary role will be scouting, game-planning, film study, etc. Having said that, apparently Coleman was a stud recruiter at Kansas State (relatively speaking), so if Herman thinks he can help out on visits (a la Samples), I'm sure he can pitch in.

As Lee Corso says..... "Not So Fast" Per Anwar......Two more analyst nuggets to pass along: 1. A person close to Herman told me Fedora was not hired under the guise of him replacing anyone on staff. During a staff meeting Fedora attended, I was told Herman made it clear to everyone the former coach will be an analyst and this position is not a job interview. 2. There is a possibility Herman will hire six or seven analysts, with three of those positions filled by former head coaches and at least three grad assistants. Former Kansas coach David Beaty is a candidate for an analyst position at Texas, but I do not currently have names of other coaches who could be in the mix. I will keep you posted. But texasstrong12 could still end up being right... Edited February 26, 20196 yr by LTtxfan typo

If Herman likes Fedora or Coleman you think he's going to let them walk? Herman, for whatever reason, is big on giving the perception of staff continuity. Bottom line is with this new 1-year contract approach to assistants and good support staff it's an interview process for everyone. Do your job or there are probably better options at different levels. Edited February 26, 20196 yr by texasstrong12

And, from Tyler Lockett to Deante Burton to Byron Pringle to Isaiah Zuber, Coleman also has a strong track record of coaching up wide receivers who weren’t highly recruited." "Another area where Coleman could help the Longhorns? In the kick return game — he was an explosive player in that phase, even returning a kickoff for a touchdown in a Super Bowl. As a coach, Coleman helped tutor Morgan Burns in 2015 when Burns earned Big 12 Special Teams Player of the Year honors after four kickoff returns for touchdowns. In 2013, Coleman’s tutelage helped Tyler Lockett return two punts for touchdowns and lead the nation with a 19.1-yard average."
