The coaching carousel continues and following the news of Texas A&M offensive coordinator Collin Klein accepting the soon-to-be-vacant job at his alma mater, Kansas State University, the Aggies are now searching for his replacement.
It was only a matter of time before Klein secured a head coaching position in the college ranks. Over the past few seasons, he has been regarded as one of the most talented up-and-coming coaches in America. Before moving to A&M, he served as the offensive coordinator at Kansas State, where his offense ranked in the top 25 for two consecutive years.
AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementDuring his tenure at A&M, he elevated a 50th-ranked offense upon his arrival to the 20th-ranked offense this season. Nevertheless, it hasn’t always been smooth sailing. He faced considerable criticism for how stagnant his play-calling could become at times or for straying away from successful strategies. As a result, reactions to the news of his departure after Texas A&M’s football season officially concludes have been mixed.
Still, Marcel Reed’s development and Klein’s ability to recruit have been notable positives. Even with some questionable decisions along the way, the prevailing sentiment is that he improved the Texas A&M offense and departs with well wishes for his next chapter.
Below, you’ll find some of the best reactions from social media:
