Jamie Morrison is in his third season leading the Texas A&M volleyball program, already guiding the team to two NCAA Tournament appearances and one trip to the Sweet 16. Prior to being named the program’s seventh head coach on December 16, 2022, Morrison was serving as the head coach of the United States U19 national team, a position he still holds, and was the Director of Sports Performance for League One Volleyball, a six-team professional league which debuted in 2024.
Morrison boasts a 37-21 record at Texas A&M, including an 18-16 ledger in league play. His leadership booked A&M’s spots in back-to-back NCAA Tournaments, marking the first repeat berths since the 2016 season. During his time with the Aggies, he has produced a pair of AVCA All-Americans, as well as four AVCA All-District and four All-SEC selections.
Morrison led the Aggies to a 21-8 record in the 2024 season, marking the program’s highest win total since 2019. He also recorded a 10-6 finish in SEC play to rank fifth in the league, which was also the best team result since the 2019 season. Morrison and the Aggies defended home court throughout the year, boasting a 10-3 ledger at Reed Arena. His team got off to a historic start during the campaign, winning their first eight matches which tied for the third-best start to a season in program history. The Maroon & White also tallied a trio of ranked wins throughout the 2024 campaign, highlighted by a conference victory on the road over the No. 7 Longhorns in a five-set thriller. Morrison’s group also claimed another standout win over No. 8 Arizona State in the second round of the NCAA Tournament, securing its first Sweet 16 berth since the 2019 season. The Aggies concluded the 2024 season ranked No. 16 nationally, which is tied for their fifth-highest final ranking in A&M’s record books.
Continuing to stand out on the international stage, Morrison added to his medal collection in the summer of 2025 as he led the U19 national team to gold at the NORCECA Pan American Cup. The team won all three of its matches in pool play and held that momentum, as it won its semifinal matchup versus the Dominican Republic and ensured the tournament title with a sweep in the final versus Mexico. In his previous years working with the U19 group, he has also claimed gold at the 2024 NORCECA Championships, 2023 FIVB World Championships and 2022 Pan American Cup. In his four seasons with the U19’s he holds an unblemished 24-0 record.
During his debut season in Aggieland, he led the squad to a 16-12 regular season record, including an 8-10 finish in conference play. Morrison also guided the program to its first NCAA Tournament berth since 2019. The Aggies’ blocking was where they held their hat, as the group ranked in the top-10 nationally and had the No.1 blocker in the country in Ifenna Cos-Okpalla, who finished the season blocking 1.62 swings per set.
Prior to his time with in Aggieland, Morrison was a part of three United States Olympic medal-winning squads, as he won gold with the men’s team in Beijing (2008), then silver and bronze with the women’s teams in London (2012) and Rio (2016), respectively.
International volleyball remained a love of Morrison’s, as he traveled to the Netherlands and served a three-year stint coaching the women’s national team (2017-19). During his time with the Dutch squad, he led them to a silver-medal finish at the 2017 European Championships and a fourth-place result at the 2018 World Championships.
He served collegiate coaching stints at Texas (2020-2021), UC Irvine (2012-13), Concordia [Calif.] (2006-08), USC (2004-05) and UC Santa Barbara (1999-2003) and helped lead three of those teams to the national semifinals or finals.
Morrison graduated from UC Santa Barbara with a degree in business economics in 2002. He and his wife, Kim, have a daughter, Andi.
