Auburn Tigers wide receiver Cam Coleman (8) catches a pass as Auburn Tigers take on Alabama Crimson Tide in the Iron Bowl at Jordan-Hare Stadium in Auburn, Ala. on Saturday, Nov. 29, 2025. Alabama Crimson Tide defeated Auburn Tigers 27-20.

Cam Coleman, the No. 1 wide receiver in the transfer portal, announced his commitment to Texas on Sunday.

In two seasons at Auburn, Coleman caught 93 passes for 1,306 yards and 13 touchdowns.

The 6-foot-3, 200-pound receiver, who was ranked by On3 as the top transfer wideout, also made visits to Alabama, Texas Tech and Texas A&M.

His move to Texas leaves Auburn with its second five-star departure of the day. Earlier, quarterback Deuce Knight announced he was moving on to another Southeastern Conference rival, Ole Miss.

Texas was among the power-conference programs to offer Coleman when he was a player at Central Phenix City High School in Alabama in the 2024 class, but he elected to stay in state at Auburn. The 247Sports composite listed him as the No. 2 wide receiver in the recruiting class with only Ohio State star Jeremiah Smith was ahead of him. He was also No. 3 overall ranked player in the incoming class.

At Texas, Coleman will join the returning Ryan Wingo in forming a mighty 1-2 punch for quarterback Arch Manning. Wingo had 54 catches for 834 yards and seven touchdowns last season.

The Longhorns finished the season with a 10-3 record (6-2 SEC).
