=======================================================================================
Jordan Davis joined the UNT Football staff in December 2022 as Offensive Coordinator and Wide Receivers coach.

Davis coordinated one of the top offenses in the American and the nation in 2023. Under his leadership, North Texas boasted one of only four offenses nationally during the regular season to include a 3,000-yard passer, a 1,000-yard rusher and a 1,000-yard receiver. UNT finished led the AAC and ranked No. 6 nationally in total offense (495.8), plus ranks of No. 12 in passing offense (304.7) and No. 21 in both rushing offense (191.2) and scoring (34.5).

A native of Arlington, Davis spent seven seasons coaching under Morris at Texas Tech, UIW and Washington State. He played a key role on the Incarnate Word staff as Assistant Head Coach and Wide Receivers coach and was an analyst at Wazzu in 2022.

Davis arrived in Pullman having spent the past the past four seasons at the University of Incarnate Word under Morris. He joined the Cardinals staff in 2018 as the wide receivers coach in 2018 and was promoted to assistant head coach and wide receivers coach in 2020.

During the 2021 season, Davis coached wide receiver Taylor Grimes, who earned multiple All-American honors in 2021 and was named Southland Conference Newcomer of the Year after setting single-season records for receiving yards (1,145) and touchdown receptions (15). The prior season Davis mentored all-conference receiver Robert Ferrell, who led the team in catches (35), yards (474) and six touchdowns, the latter setting a school record in just six games due to the shortened season.

In Davis’ second season with UIW in 2019, the Cardinals won five games and broke numerous program records. Davis guided WR Kam Williams to four consecutive 100-yard receiving games, with a season-best 146 and three touchdowns on six catches against Texas Southern. His four-consecutive 100-yard games rank second in program history, while his three TD catches against TSU tied a program record for a single-game.

Davis was part of a staff that engineered the most successful year in program history, marked by a Southland Conference championship and a berth to the FCS Playoffs. UIW, who was 1-10 overall and 1-7 in SLC action in 2017, had one of the best turnarounds in program history with a 6-4 record (six wins ties the program record).

Davis helped guide UIW to multiple season records, including total offense (5,315), total points (357), and touchdowns (48).

Senior wide receivers Kody Edwards (932 yards) and Phillip Baptiste (905 yards, first team All-SLC) each set records on the outside in 2018. Baptiste broke single season program records in receptions (59), receiving touchdowns (9), and receptions per game (5.36), while Edwards set program bests with five 100-yard receiving outings and 1,389 all-purpose yards. Edwards also broke the program record for career receiving yards (2,353) and receptions (140), and he tied the program record for receiving touchdowns (14).

Prior to UIW, Davis was an offensive graduate assistant at Texas Tech University, where he worked closely with Morris, then the offensive coordinator for the Red Raiders, during the 2016 and 2017 seasons.

In 2017, Davis helped guide TTU to a top-10 national ranking in passing offense. The Red Raiders also ranked 16th in passing offense, averaging 474.6 yards per game, including 333.7 yards through the air. Texas Tech played in the Birmingham Bowl to conclude the 2017 season.

Davis also helped the Red Raiders to a nation-leading 566.6 yards of total offense and 463 passing yards per game in 2016.

Prior to his time as a graduate assistant, Davis played for the Texas Tech for three years. He recorded 43 receptions for 398 yards and two touchdowns for the Red Raiders.

In 2011, Davis played for Southwestern Oklahoma State, where he appeared in 11 games and made 20 receptions for 225 yards with a team-leading three touchdowns.

Davis graduated from Texas Tech with a bachelor’s degree in university studies in 2014 and a master’s degree in interdisciplinary studies in 2017.

He is married to the former Lauren Wagner.
