The Gophers football program has added a second receiver commitment in two days via the NCAA transfer portal.
Nebraska transfer Malachi Coleman pledged to Minnesota on Tuesday and will have three years of eligibility at the U.
“Let’s rock,” he posted on social media.
Coleman was a top 70 recruit in the nation out of Lincoln (Neb.) East in the class of 2023, but didn’t play much in 2024.
Listed at 6-foot-4 and 190 pounds, Coleman played in only one game in 2024, using his redshirt season. As a true freshman in 2023, Coleman had eight receptions for 139 yards and one touchdown.
In 2023, he received an average grade out 58.0 by Pro Football Focus and was primarily a split receiver for 332 out of 335 total offensive snaps.
Coleman follows two other wideouts to Minnesota: Logan Loya (UCLA) on Monday and Jaovn Tracy (Miami of Ohio) on Dec. 15.
