It didn't take long for the Texas Longhorns to find a new wide receivers coach.

Three days after Jay Norvell left for Arizona State, the school announced the hiring of former Indianapolis Colts wide receivers coach Charlie Williams.

Williams' most recent season with the Colts was spent as the running backs coach, but his previous three were at wide receiver.
