Jordyn Wieber resigned as head coach of Arkansas gymnastics on Monday after seven seasons leading the Razorbacks, with assistant Chris Brooks promoted as her replacement effective immediately.
Wieber departs to focus on family and pursue other interests after transforming Arkansas into an NCAA gymnastics powerhouse. The decision marks the end of an era for a program that reached unprecedented heights under her leadership.
"Serving as head coach of Arkansas Gymnastics has been an honor," Wieber said in a team statement. "I'm deeply grateful to our student-athletes, staff, and Razorback fans for an unforgettable journey. With a heavy, but full heart and immense pride in what we have accomplished, I'm stepping away from athletics."
Jordyn Wieber guided Arkansas gymnastics to two national championship appearances during her tenure, while earning 30 All-America honors and 40 All-SEC selections. Every one of the program's Top 10 all-time team scores came during the Wieber era.
The Razorbacks also set attendance records under her leadership. The program drew 15,512 fans to Bud Walton Arena on March 6th — a new program and SEC gymnastics high. Arkansas ranked in the Top 10 nationally in average attendance every season.
Brooks joined the program in 2019 alongside Wieber. He served as the primary uneven bars coach, helping guide the Razorbacks to eight of the program's best 13 bars scores in history.
The former two-time national champion with Oklahoma brings Olympic gymnastics experience to the role. Brooks competed as an alternate at the 2012 London Games before captaining the 2016 US men's team in Rio de Janeiro.
