  "account": "Cam Coleman, a highly rated wide receiver out of Phenix City, Alabama, transferred from Auburn to the Texas Longhorns during the 2025 offseason. He was a top-10 prospect coming out of high school and was rated as a five-star player by 247Sports, ranking No. 2 among wide receivers for the 2024 recruiting class. Coleman played two seasons at Auburn, going 10 catches for 597 yards and eight touchdowns in 2024 and 12 catches for 708 yards and five touchdowns in 2025. However, he struggled with two different quarterbacks at Auburn, and after a disappointing 5-7 finish, he entered the transfer portal at the end of December 2025. He ultimately chose the Texas Longhorns, joining quarterback Arch Manning, a future top NFL draft pick. Head coach Steve Sarkisian praised Coleman's strategic approach, highlighting his desire for an NFL-style offense and comprehensive route tree. In his first game with the Longhorns, Coleman made an immediate impact, recording three receptions for 70 yards and two touchdowns.",
