Over the past decade, Texas has seen five defensive coordinators, Nansen becoming the sixth, as head coaches and other staff have shuffled in and out of the program.
As Texas heads to the SEC and defense is more important than ever as the Horns face some of the biggest powerhouses in college football, how exactly do those five defense coordinators stack up?

Miller ventures into the portal again after just one year in Morgantown — he joined the Mountaineers in January 2023 after a lengthy stint at Kent State. Miller earned significant playing time during the season opener for WVU against Penn State this past fall, recording three solo tackles. Unfortunately, an injury sidelined him for the rest of his time with the Mountaineers.
Wherever Miller lands in the portal, he will bring a sort of veteran experience that is extremely hard to come by in college football — he enters his seventh year of college football, having joined Kent State as a member of the Class of 2018. He spent five years with the Golden Flashes and exhausted three seasons of eligibility before transferring to WVU. Due to missing the 2023 season with an injury, have preserved his final year of eligibility for this fall.
