The nvidia 260.x drivers are no longer listed in any repo, but the RPMS exist in the mirror (sorry for the linewrap):

And searching through all the package groups using yum groupinfo <group> doesn't find them either:

yum grouplist | grep \ | while read group; do echo "$group:" ; yum groupinfo "$group" | grep -i nvidia; done

Only finds these:

260 is the current version, it's name is xorg-x11-drv-nvidia. I don't believe there was a different name for the current version previously, only the old versions get different names. From puias5, xorg-x11-drv-nvidia is version 195.
