Malachi

[SomedayHusker]

He’s proven more than all but 3 WRs we have

Key, Hunter, Lloyd and Barney have all clearly proven more than Coleman ever has in college. The room is more than fine

You’re of course “forgetting” how probably every scholarship receiver on the roster put up more stats than Coleman did in high school, so even all incoming freshman have already “proven themselves” more than he had at this point in their respective careers.

One could sooner argue he’s one of the most unproven scholarship WRs we have landed in the last decade plus.

Don’t let any of that stop you from shitting on the team and coaches some more though.

I wish Coleman wouldn't have gone to another B1G team but oh well...

Well said. Proven or not - he’s not very good. Maybe that will change but HS through 2 years of college - he hasn’t been very good. I’ll take inexperienced good over experienced (can we call Malachi experienced?) “not very good” any day.

I wish the kid all the best. I appreciate he tried it here first because he had lots of options. GBR

Wish him well. #gbr

Malachi is a good kid, wished it would have worked out better for him in Lincoln..

We’ll see how he performs for PJ..

Not surprisingly, you still didn't answer my question. Flip your cards over, big guy. Is he proven and ready?

He has proven more on the field in college than all but 3 guys we have.

I saw on Twitter he is having an official visit with Minnesota. Why?

Well, this is a fools errand. Say what you will about Coach Capris, but his program has a low tolerance for BS.

He's also very good at developing receivers. We'll find out soon enough whether Malachi is a football player or not.

4 guys, not 3. Unless you’re really going to argue he’s done more than Barney, which everyone will disagree with you on for obvious reasons.

Barney - 52 catches, 431 yards, 130 rushing yards, 3 TDs
Coleman - 8 catches 139 yards 1 TD

Barney almost matched Coleman’s career stats in ONE GAME…

If we had kept him your "proven and ready" counts still wouldn't have changed.

With the 105 limit you process dudes like this. Going into 3rd year with limited stats. He redshirted for a reason this year. Not like we had all conference dudes playing wr this year. You process the non contributors and replace with 4 star freshman that hopefully pan out.

Assuming he is playing…I can guarantee that the Blackshirts will be focused and motivated headed into that game.

Could possibly have been his only portal offer.

Could be an avid row boater?
