"I had previous offers from Colorado, Kansas State, Georgia Tech, Boston College, Arizona State, UCLA, West Virginia, Arkansas and Oklahoma State," Coleman said. "Now I can add those two to the list."
The summer has also brought contact from Texas A&M, Tennessee, LSU, Oklahoma, Arizona and Florida.
Even with this weighty list of contenders, the 6-foot-5, 275-pound defensive tackle admits to no favorites as yet.
Coleman has a lengthy list of his own when it comes to his requirements for a college.
“I’d like to go out of state, but I would also like my family to get to see me play.”
He is also looking for a winning tradition and a solid educational program with a strong support network.
“I want to go to a place with a great football atmosphere and a good coaching staff and group of players," Coleman said. "I’d also like to go someplace with some cooler weather.”
Coleman looks forward to improving on Skyline’s 5-5 record last season.
“I play on the offensive line, also, but prefer defense because it’s more challenging. My speed is deceptive because of my size so I use that to my advantage. I like to chase people down and hit them.”
