Dave Campbell's Texas Football is proud to once again roll out its 40 Under 40 — honoring the best young coaches in the state of Texas.

DOUG BELK — Houston Defensive Coordinator

The Third Ward Defense was dominant in Belk’s first season as defensive coordinator. He was a semifinalist for the 2021 Broyles Award for the nation’s top assistant coach. 

JAMES CLANCY — Klein Cain Head Coach

Clancy, who spent five years leading Houston Strake Jesuit, opened up Cain in 2017 and his Hurricanes have become an immediate contender, posting 17 wins the past two seasons and an area round playoff appearance in 2021. 

JOSH COCHRAN — Texas Tech Tight Ends Coach

The East Texas native is shifting to tight ends coach out west after previously serving as co-offensive coordinator and offensive line coach at Austin Peay. 

JACODY COLEMAN — Dallas Skyline Head Coach

The former Humble Atascocita DC was considered one of the bright young defensive minds in the Houston area and now he’s getting his shot to be a head coach at Dallas ISD’s lone 6A program.
