Zach Barnett of Football Scoop reports that former Nebraska wide receiver coach Garret McGuire is expected to be joining the Texas Tech Red Raiders coaching team. Working with the Nebraska Huskers from 2022 to 2023, McGuire brings to light noteworthy coaching and recruiting experience.
From 2021 to 2022, McGuire was part of the Carolina Panthers coaching staff under head coach Matt Rhule before his time with Nebraska. During his tenure with the Huskers, he made notable recruiting efforts securing players such Cortez Mills, Isaiah Mozee, Dae'vonn Hall, Jacory Barney Jr., and Isaiah McMorris.
With 2,737 total receiving yards for the 2023 season, Nebraska's passing game came in sixth in the Big Ten under McGuire. The Huskers are undergoing a major offensive coaching make-over notwithstanding this output. They recently added former Kentucky Wildcats wide receiver coach Dakiel Shorts, therefore indicating a change in their offensive approach.
The possible acquisition of McGuire to Texas Tech gives offensive coordinator Dana Holgerson chances to improve the Red Raiders' personnel. Well-known for his ability to grow players and attract elite talent, McGuire's background will probably help Tech improve their offensive output.
McGuire's projected arrival heralds an investment in a vibrant and competitive coaching staff as Texas Tech gets ready for the next season. Nebraska keeps working to overhaul its offensive coaching lineup, hoping to lay a stronger basis for the future.
