WR Keon Coleman

I mentioned that Wake Forest’s defense is susceptible to giving up yards through the air. Former Michigan State wide receiver transfer Keon Coleman has been a sensational playmaker for the Seminoles. He was even featured in ESPN’s “You Got Mossed” where he received a custom pair of “You Got Mossed” gloves that were signed by legendary wide receiver Randy Moss.

Coleman was certainly made a difference in this offense. It seems like every week he is making an eye-opening catch that leaves fans jumping out of their seats. The pass catcher has recorded 31 receptions for 472 yards and seven touchdowns.

With the uncertainty of wide receiver Johnny Wilson’s injury, Coleman will likely have to take control of the game if the Seminoles want to consistently move the football on offense. Throughout the season, quarterback Jordan Travis has relied on throwing it to his ultra-talented playmakers in Coleman and Wilson.

The signal caller will give the Louisiana native the opportunity to showcase to the college football world that he is a top ten wide receiver in the country.
