Jorge Munoz joined the Baylor Football staff as passing game coordinator and wide receivers coach in January 2020.
Munoz joins the Baylor staff following two seasons (2018-19) as an offensive analyst at LSU, where he worked closely in tutoring Heisman Trophy winner Joe Burrow. Munoz was a member of the 2019 National Championship winning staff.
LSU’s 2019 offense is widely regarded as the best in college football history as the Tigers were the first to feature a 5,000-yard passer (Joe Burrow), two 1,000-yard receivers (Ja’Marr Chase and Justin Jefferson) and a 1,000-yard rusher (Clyde Edwards-Helaire).Â
In 15 games in 2019, LSU scored 40 points or more 12 times, which included four 50-point games and three 60-point games. LSU never scored fewer than 23 points and that came in a win over Auburn. Additionally, LSU racked up 500 yards or more of total offense 12 times, including 628 against Clemson in the national championship game and 692 in a win over Oklahoma in the national semifinals.Â
LSU’s 2019 offense featured Burrow, who reset the SEC single-season record books, with the best performance by a quarterback in college football history. Burrow set NCAA marks for passing TDs (60) and total TDs (64) to go along with SEC marks for passing yards (5,671), completions (402), completion percentage (76.3) and total offense (6,039). Burrow’s top two receivers in Biletnikoff winner Ja’Marr Chase and Justin Jefferson both set records as well. Chase set the SEC mark for TD receptions (20) and receiving yards (1,780), while Jefferson set the LSU record for total receptions (111).Â
Prior to joining the LSU staff, Munoz spent 10 seasons on the staff at Louisiana-Lafayette in multiple roles on offense including pass game coordinator/quarterbacks coach (2008-10), wide receivers coach (2011-15, 2017) and offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach (2016).
Â
In that time, the Ragin’ Cajuns made five bowl appearances and won the 2013 Sun Belt Conference championship. Munoz’s top pupil in his tenure was Jamal Robinson, who finished his UL career among the program’s leaders with 156 receptions (4th), 2,653 yards (3rd) and 20 touchdowns (3rd).
Â
Additionally, Javone Lawson became only the third player in school history to record more than 1,000 yards receiving in a single season with 1,092 in 2011.
Â
Prior to joining the Louisiana staff, Munoz spent three seasons at Eastern Illinois (2005-07), starting as receivers coach in 2005, co-offensive coordinator in 2006 and offensive coordinator in 2007. During his time with EIU, the Panthers were ranked in the top 25 each season in the Division I FCS rankings and advanced to the FCS Playoffs.
Â
Before that he coached at Charleston Southern (2004-05), Anderson College (2001-02) Southeast Missouri (1999-00) and his alma mater, Bethany College (1998).
  Â
A 1998 graduate, Munoz was a two-time All-American quarterback at Bethany. He played one year in the Arena Football League with the Albany Firebirds. Munoz was a multi-sport standout at San Diego Hilltop High.
