While at Texas A&M, Springer worked directly with special teams coordinator Jeff Banks, and assisted with the tight ends. He was also responsible for organizing recruiting efforts in south and west Texas.
Under Banks and Springer, the Aggies’ special teams were one of the nation’s leaders. In 2017, Texas A&M led the nation in blocked kicks and blocked punts. The Aggies also finished second in the nation in punt returns and third in net punting.
In 2016, the Aggies’ special teams led the nation in punt returns and allowed zero blocked kicks. A year prior, they led the nation in punt returns and allowed zero blocked kicks in 2015.

In March of 2013, Springer became a graduate assistant coach where he worked with UTEP’s defensive line and special teams. He helped coach the Miners to their 14th bowl game in program history when they appeared in the 2014 New Mexico Bowl. In addition to his coaching duties, he managed on-campus recruiting throughout the year and was a primary in-house recruiter for Georgia and Florida.
