Aaron Anguiano was named UAPB running backs coach and recruting coordinator in April 2020.

No stranger to the Golden Lions’ program, Anguiano (pronounced Ang-Yawn-Oh) spent the previous two seasons as an offensive graduate assistant primarily focusing on wide receivers. During that time, DeJuan Miller earned SWAC Freshman of the Year Honors and FCS All-America honors while averaging 15.4 yards per reception for nearly 1,500 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns.

In 2017, ‘AR’ was the running back coach at Fullerton (Ca.) College, which won the junior college national championship as RB Gerald Hulett gained more than 1,200 yards total offense and 20 touchdowns while earning JUCO All-America honors.

Anguiano was wide receivers coach at Buena Park (Ca.) High School, with his unit combining for more than 3,000 yards and scoring 35 touchdowns.

A native of Huntington Beach, Calif., Anguiano began his coaching career at Laguna Beach High School, where his return units set school records for both punt and kickoff returns for touchdown in the same season.

Anguiano earned his bachelor’s degree from Auburn and is pursuing Master’s degree from Arkansas At Pine Bluff.
