• Holmon
• Wiggins

• Wide Receivers Coach

COACHING HIGHLIGHTS

• Enters his second season with the Hokies after spending four seasons in the same capacity at Memphis.
• Well-versed in the offensive philosophy of head coach Justin Fuente and offensive coordinator Brad Cornelsen, Wiggins’ relationship with that duo and current Tech offensive line coach Vance Vice dates back to their time together at Illinois State.
• Part of a staff that helped guide Tech’s offense to 10 single-season records in 2016, including  points (490), passing first downs (172), TD passes (31), total offense (6,223), completion pct. (62.1%), passing yards (3,660) and pass completions (279).
• Helped continue the ascent of WR Isaiah Ford, who broke his own Tech single-season record with 79 receptions in 2016, registering 1,094 yards and seven TDs in the process.
• Also tutored WR Cam Phillips, who earned Belk Bowl MVP honors and concluded his junior campaign by setting personal bests in receptions (76), receiving yards (983) and TDs (five). Those 76 catches were the second-best season mark in school history behind only Ford, who had 79 receptions a year ago.
• An integral component of Fuente’s staff that helped lead Memphis to 19 victories and back-to-back bowl appearances in 2014-15. That amazing run featured a 15-game winning streak, the school’s first conference championship since 1971 and a double-overtime win over BYU in the Miami Beach Bowl.
• Inherits an All-ACC pass catcher in WR Isaiah Ford, who set single-season Tech records with 75 receptions for 1,164 yards and 11 touchdowns as a sophomore in 2015.
• Drastically improved the production of the wide receivers corps at Memphis. That position accounted for 125 receptions for 1,417 yards and eight touchdowns in 2012 and made incremental gains each subsequent season.
• Memphis wideouts registered 148 receptions, 1,687 yards and four TDs in 2013 and upped that total to 205 receptions for 2,422 yards and 14 TDs in 2014 before hauling in 255 passes for 3,277 yards and 19 TDs in 2015.
• In total, Memphis registered 53 total receiving scores in 2014-15, compared to only 24 TD passes in the two seasons before Wiggins accompanied Fuente to the school.
• Under Wiggins’ tutelage, WR Mose Frazier (who began his career at Arkansas-Pine Bluff) enjoyed a breakout senior campaign in 2015, leading the Tigers with 70 catches for 797 yards, while adding four scores. 
• The Tigers ranked 18th in passing offense (307.5 ypg) among FBS squads and were 19th in total offense (486.9 ypg) in 2015, while finishing 11th in scoring offense (40.2 ppg). Memphis also ranked eighth in the nation in third-down conversions at 48.8 percent (101 of 207).
• Memphis posted a 10-3 mark in 2014 thanks to a potent offense that ranked 21st among FBS squads by averaging 36.2 ppg.
• Frazier and fellow WR Keiwone Malone formed a dynamic tandem of wideouts for the Tigers in 2014, combining for 92 receptions, 1,061 yards and seven TDs.
• Joined the Memphis program after a one-year stint coaching running backs under head coach Bill Blankenship at Tulsa in 2010.
• His Tulsa running backs combined for 2,006 rushing yards, while H-Back Willie Carter led Tulsa with 868 receiving yards that season, meriting a spot on the All-Conference USA Second Team.
• Enjoyed a five-year tour of duty coaching running backs at Illinois State from 2006-10, helping guide the Redbirds to the FCS quarterfinals in his initial season on the staff.
• Under his tutelage in 2006, RB Pierre Rembert earned All-America accolades and rushed for a school-record 1,743 yards. From 2006-08, Illinois State averaged 187.7 rushing ypg and racked up 76 rushing scores.
• Wiggins began his coaching career at his alma mater of New Mexico after enjoying a standout playing career for the Lobos. 

PLAYING HIGHLIGHTS

• A four-year letterwinner and three-year starter at running back for New Mexico (1998-2001), he finished his career with 1,833 rushing yards, the 14th-most in school history. He also remains the Lobos’ single-season leader in punt returns (46) and punt return yardage (392) – both set in 2000 – and ranks 12th all-time in all-purpose yards with 2,912 yards.
