2022 Kevin Coleman 2.0

[TexasCane90]

Looks like they will both play both ways

Idk how the NFL will view that? They usually don’t like taking Jack of all trades and masters of none in the first round

 

[WeBallinBoyz]

QB is not garbage.

You watch any games, or just looking at stats?

 

[Ispyin]

Miami and fsu rn

 

[TooColdToHold]

Deion pulled shockers on ESD and at an AA game. He’ll have something for signing day in February.

Shemar

Kids are free to choose their own path, but it's remarkable that they've been wanting to get paid for eons and now that it's open, they select an HBCU where the opportunity is likely less than P5 teams.

 

[Bender]

Lmao there’s no such thing anymore. Scouts will go watch them play anywhere. Plus HBCU games come on TV often. Many guys go in the first round from small schools. NFL doesn’t care about competition or production when evaluating guys.

Stop. Competition matters big time.

Once Deion leaves, they leave.

 

[gacaneaddict]

Kids a dime or dozen. Shifty but lacks explosion. He would rank about 4th in South Florida if he was a 2023 WR recruit, and that may be generous.

Never was super high on him, but liked the prospect of rising up the rankings on 247 with his addition.

 

[GladeCane]

Coleman and Hunter will both be in the portal after next season.

 

[Hurricane4lyfe]

We’ll see in a few years how much pull peion really has

He don’t care about nobody but himself and money but they’ll find that out in 2023 when fswho fires norvell and come calling peion sanders lol

A poster on one of the other chats said Coleman committed to Mario with his whole family. Just goes to show you.... Probably why they all looked so sad....

 

[Chipchiptx10]

I am trying to wrap my head around this. Respect to the young man’s decision, Respect to HBCU schools, and Respect to Prime. BUT!!!!!!!!! This kid will never get to play for a Natty, rarely see TV and get that exposure, or play the big boys in a meaningful way.

The look of his family said it all!!!! Also loved the odd request for someone to get his picture!

Best of luck kid!

Real question though. I looked up Jackson State's recruiting class on 247. And they have 3 signees + Coleman committed. Will they fill out to 25/a full class come February, or do they mostly take PWOs? Or is 247 just not reporting accurate numbers in case the school is signing players not in the database?

They're gonna take a sh*tload of portal guys and already got some I think

 

[WestEndZone]

Yea I'm really sick of the decades of losing guys to Jackson State. Definitely a repeat phenomenon.

Yeah I’m definitely not sick of being humiliated during a national declaration and being played in the process. Definitely not a repeat phenomenon. Literally never happened at all and definitely not in a comparatively greater rate than other schools.

 

[oso4lyf]

Deion is Gona be a problem recruiting at FSU

Only if Portnoy money follows him

 

[Canes2082]

I dont think a decommit that everyone witnessed compares thatstrongly. Even if Miami had a good feeling or were told otherwise. I think the FSU image took a bigger hit than Miami.

Agreed…

Listen does it suck we didn’t land him? Of course but…

1. He wasn’t considering us until Mario got hired.
2. Was never committed unlike Hunter who was almost committed 2 years and flipped on signing day.

This isn’t the same as what happened to Fsu. This is no different than us being crystal balled for a recruit from “recruiting experts “ and the guy picking someone else.

I mean in Mario’s short time if missing out on Coleman is the biggest thing but landing players like Moss, Iuli, Florence, Conerly, Moten maybe Christian Williams then I’ll take that everyday of the week. Guys that weren’t even on our radar before Mario got here.

Securing Wes, Kelly, flipping Skinner… cmon

Yes. I’m a FAMU alum.

Get some fresh air

 

[DCmule]

It's an interesting trend. Reminds me of a decade+ so back when lots of dudes were hiring hip hop stars and family members to be their agents. Was trendy for a while, then everyone realized they were losing millions, and now that's pretty much done.

At the same time I respect these guys trying to resurrect HBCUs. It'll take more than a few big recruits, but it's interesting.

This is a dumbass comparison. HBCU alums have always been thriving in the private and government circles. And pre SEC segregation those Grambling and Southern Teams would have annihilated those " Alabama and LSU championship teams ". Just look at the NFL hall of fame. People are mad because soon TV deals will start to come to those HBCU conf

 

[htownkidd]

Deion wants that fsu job and he’s gonna leverage his recruiting for it. Watch.

10000%, lol. We are in the minority but I believe this is going to happen eventually too.

As for Coleman, great prospect but it’s all good. We got a front 7 difference maker and a much bigger need today in Moss.
Props to the kid for going a different route and I wish em luck, truly. Glad it wasn’t FSU if not us.

If he produces and tests well he'll be fine. Comp level might knock him down a few slots but not much..
