Five-Star WR Cam Coleman commits to Texas A&M
Five-star wide receiver Cam Coleman of Phenix City (AL) Central High announced his commitment to Texas A&M Tuesday evening.
The 6-foot-3, 190 pounder chose the Aggies over Auburn, Florida State, Clemson, and Florida.
Coleman on why he chose Texas A&M
“What stood out about Texas A&M was how I felt like home every time I went there,” Coleman said. “From the coaching staff, to spending time with my future teammates. We are all going to stop playing football one day and that’s where the education aspect and Aggie Network comes into play and it’s an amazing network.”
Relationship with coaching staff + their plan for him
“The relationship with Coach Craig is a bond I started building with when Texas A&M was my first offer and my only offer and it’s been getting closer ever since. His plan for me is to develop me on and off the field to become the best man and football player I can possibly be.
The Alabama wide receiver joins coach Jimbo Fisher and the Aggies top 15 class in the 2024 team rankings. He is accompanied by four-star wide receiver Dre’lon Miller, four-star defensive lineman Dealyn Evans, and others.
Cam Coleman Scouting Summary
“Twitched-up receiver with projectable size and length who is arguably the most physically-gifted pass catcher in the 2024 cycle. Projects as a dynamic X wide receiver. Measured in at 6-foot-3.5, 185 pounds with a 33.5-inch arm in the spring prior to his senior season. Tested as a rare athlete at Under Armour’s Atlanta camp, running an electronically-timed 4.46 second 40-yard dash, a 4.19 second short shuttle along with a 10’8” broad jump. Pairs his athleticism and length to result in a large catch radius. Shows the ability to make eye-popping acrobatic grabs in contested situations. Adjusts to low and wide throws. Frames the ball at the catch point, using good technique.”
“Flashed a relatively advanced release package off the line of scrimmage in the camp setting along with the burst and long-speed to separate on Friday nights. Has the long speed to separate downfield against top corners. Runs with toughness after the catch. Has a shorter stride length for a taller wide receiver. Doubles as an electric above-the-rim athlete on the basketball court. Young for the cycle, not turning 18 years-old until his freshman season of college. Does not have the same level of gaudy production as some other top-ranked 2024 wide receivers as he split targets with Michigan signee Karmello English as a junior. Has shown several signs of a very high developmental upside along with a rapid spike in his development over the course of his junior year.”
Coleman ranks as the No. 10 player in the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He also tabs in as the No. 3 wide receiver and the No. 1 player in the state of Alabama.
He currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $319K. The On3 NIL Valuation is the industry’s leading index that sets high school and college athletes’ projected annual value (PAV). The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.
