Jarred Holley was named North Texas’ cornerbacks coach on February 1, 2021.
In his first season at UNT, Holley mentored a inexperienced cornerback room that featured five different starters. The Mean Green finished fifth in Conference USA in passing defense and defense overall posted the biggest improvement of any FBS program cutting its total yards allowed by 144.3 ypg
Holley spent the past three years at Albany as the Great Danes’ safeties coach. The Great Danes did not participate in the fall season, due to CoVID-19. During the 2019 season, safety Josh Wynn finished with 96 total tackles (53 solo) with a tackle for loss, a half sack, a team-high four interceptions, three pass break-ups and forced a pair of fumbles in 14 appearances, helping Albany to a 9-5 season.
Holley, a four-year starting defensive back at the University of Pittsburgh, came to the Great Danes from Arizona State, where he worked since 2015, serving as a graduate assistant on both the special teams and defensive staffs before working as a defensive analyst in 2017.
At Pittsburgh, Holley was a two-time Big East All-Academic Football Team Honoree and two-time member of the All-Big East team. He finished his career with 11 interceptions and attended mini-camps with the Pittsburgh Steelers after signing as an undrafted free agent.
