I wish he was committing, but this is likely a move so that he can focus on 7v7 today and get a handle on all the calls he's likely getting.

Is he canceling his official visits to Oklahoma and Michigan? That's the telltale sign.
Article said he still plans on taking those visits as well as other OV’s in the fall, with a later commitment (same as he has always indicated).

But I’m sure things could be fluid with his timeline. It happens sometimes, and particularly given that MJ has some solid WRs he’s still courting (and Coleman confirmed they are looking at him on offense).
They want to hold Coleman’s spot, but when does that become no longer feasible/practical?

If he's taking other visits then he's not committed.

Given that he is considered the top rated player in the state by many, I would assume that an offer will be reserved for both signing periods.

An article in the OWH said he loved his visit, did not commit, plans to take several more trips and would decide mid December.

Also said he doesn't care what position he plays, won't enroll early as he wants to play HS BB and has goals for the state track meet.

I had totally forgot about the removal of the 25 signing limit. That will make it much easier to hold a spot.
It’s more about not taking too many WR’s in one class I suppose, unless they see him growing into a TE or defensive player.

Doubt


He didn’t hold a press conference, He is a Nebraska kid , the paper called and asked for story he answered their questions,

Actually he did call a press conference of sorts

Gave out his mother's phone number and told all media to call in at a specified time

It was a press conference of sorts, more of a "I'm going to tell you all at once what I though instead of 30 separate times so I can focus on my 7v7." It was like 10-15 minutes. I didn't think it was a very crazy thing to do.

Agreed. They would make room for him while having alternate plans. Just don't get left at the altar.

I agree. Who in the hell wants to get texted by all of these different writers and recruiting reps of different websites from multiple teams? Not to mention contacts from schools. Plus the normal messages from friends and family. Tough to do that and also live your life away from your phone.

What I read was he didn't want multiple interviews and people contacting him and put the word out via Twitter where and when he would meet with the press all at one time. If you (press) weren't there, no story. I think it was a smart move. I have had press bug me and it is a royal pain.

They'll find room for Coleman. And he will watch the season unfold for NU and make his decision based upon the results.

I actually appreciated his candor. What can we do to improve our chances ? Win, pretty simple and straightforward

MC cancelled his official this weekend to Michigan and then this....



I'd say he's N as long as we don't suck this year and Mickey is still around.
