Malachi Coleman ought to knock on the door of Kansas, Kansas state or Iowa State.

[@robertofraire4102]

@@huskerite2 Iowa state makes the most since

[@Lukuigi]

Watched Coleman play at Lincoln East. He was so lazy. They played Southwest and there was a physical corner matching up against him and Coleman folded like a lawn chair. Lazy routes. Zero catches. Dropped balls. Then just sat on the sideline for 2 quarters. No effort. Not gonna miss this guy at all.

[@dionpryor369]

People thought he was the savior of the WRs.. i never did..he barely played..seemed to always be missing in the conversations..

[@c_bame]

He's better than Neyor and Banks.

[@Lukuigi]

@ obviously he wasn’t

[@MarekGamer76]

If Malachi was coming along strong in development as a redshirt, he would have seen play time against USC or UCLA. Given he can have 4 games without burning his redshirt, we would have used him if it gave us a better opportunity to win. The fact that he didn't is probably indicative that he hasn't developed enough to crack the depth chart in the current room.

[@bogo1992]

Can’t be shocked about transfers anymore. It’s the new nature of the CFB beast.

[@katiekatfreeman]

He is still listed on the roster. Hope Holgerson can get him to stay.

[@jasonpatterson2143]

Yeah, they'll miss all of his 6 catches in 2 years.

[@Shawn-p4r]

Rhule said many players would be gone ..why blame him for leaving? Roster cuts are inevitable

[@omahadave]

Probably another in a long list of reasons to fire the wide receivers coach/child.

[@chadelles2586]

Agreed. Get McGuire out of here

[@mattanderson9689]

And the growing Matt Rhule disasters at Nebraska list.

[@timneitzel6703]

Why is it the coaches fault, maybe he is lazy and can't get the playbook. Maybe he doesn't give the effort to make the field. We didn't need him to beat Colorado. Love how everyone blames the coaches, it's the players too.

[@mikelilly7285]

This really saddens me. What a great young man. He always seemed like he was running in mud out of the box though. I felt like he was gone when they announced his redshirt.

[@montecraig7032]

Star ratings are for the fans, they aren’t that important.

[@paulharding706]

Agreed. Quit blaming coaches. He's gotta put in the time. I heard he has a shitty work ethic

[@ChosenPlaysYT]

If he couldn’t be a difference maker here, why do people think he’s gonna magically get a higher NIL deal and better program to walk into? He could have been our WR3 next year in a system he knows and a higher NIL deal than he’s gonna get transferring. Makes no sense. Teams with robust NIL and winning cultures aren’t going to throw money at a guy who couldn’t start on the 110th ranked offense.

[@danieldittman1470]

I wish him well. He’s got a bright future wherever he lands.

[@WalaaeldenKambal]

He always wanted to go to Colorado but stayed because his family is here.

[@femaleKCRoyalsFan]

Are you sure he wanted to go to Colorado? Remember when they were trying to get him to commit Frost was still the coach

[@GaryRothermund]

Rumor is he's on his way to Colorado to play for Prime.

[@shanezywiec]

3 new receivers coming in next year that are probably better.

[@jaredjones6292]

He was asked to block. nuff said.

[@AdrianAllen-cn3uk]

That's unfortunate good luck and God bless his next year.

[@DionPryor-j7h]

😂😂😂

[@Coolseason18]

Look, if you knew anything about big time high school football sure as hell not in Nebraska. Yes, he looked good in high school but it was in Nebraska. Some of you are wondering way Nelson is not playing. Jesus he played 8 man football, it will take him at least 2 years to figure out what’s going on even if he has the talent.

[@brianb6924]

It doesn't seem like the receiver corp is developing. Can't get open, can't block What needs to happen with the coaches?

[@davidberaldi9455]

His chances of playing in a bowl game have dramatically improved no matter where this bright young man ends up. Bravo sir.

[@MrBestshot33]

He never really saw the field... So is it any real loss? Especially with the potential of new recruits.

[@allensaunders449]

Maybe he quit because the coaches didn't play him. Saying he didn't do the needed thing's maybe maybe not.. Maybe the coaches didn't get the starting personal correct. The guys this year haven't been that good coaches aren't always right

[@mattanderson9689]

Ya think? Coleman is sitting on the sidelines while Nebraska's WR's are currently in the middle of one of the biggest disappearing acts of all time. If I were Coleman I'd say peace out too especially when you watch this staff take Raiola and ruin him from his early good play & high confidence.

[@charlesstevens-c3o]

Coleman didn't want to block downfield he refused. So the coaches benched him and he gave up trying. When he leaves if he leaves he will be making the biggest mistake he's made in his life.

[@mattanderson9689]

@@charlesstevens-c3o lmao.....leaving one of the biggest dumpster fire programs in the country will be the biggest mistake of his life? A program that owns the nation's longest Division 1 bowless streak? A program that has lost back to back weeks to teams who were 2-5 in B10 play when Nebraska played them? A program that hasn't won a conference title in 30 years? A program that is 0-25 against there last 25 games vs top 25 teams? A program who's current WR's who play absolutley suck at perimeter blocking to the point there were recent articles written about just how bad Neb's current WR's are at blocking. That will be the biggest mistake of his life? Get a clue man.....the staff has to come up with some kind of excuse they didn't do jack shit with Coleman a Lincoln native, blaming perimeter blocking sounds like the weakest excuse you could come up with even if true he didn't like doing it just like all their current starting WR's.

[@FaithfulJourney777]

Yeah I bet they just don’t how to be coaches

[@dionpryor369]

​@mattanderson9689 why are you here being deranged. Your embarrassing and should check yourself and perhaps find another hobby. You're definitely unhinged.

[@HoundFHell-jj8jm]

If anyone needs to hit the road it's that Mcguire kid. There is so much talent and speed in the WR room but for some reason they thjink Banks and Neyor are the only ones that can catch a ball, it's to bad they can't block. Coleman was doing good last year and he blocks good also. So why hasn't one of the fastest guys on the team been on the field all year? Same goes for Castanada, we saw his talents 2 or 3 years ago and man was that guy good. Now they say he's nursing an injury, BS! That Mcguire kid needs firing and if Rhule can't fire him then Rhule needs firing. If they lose Coleman, the whole coaching staff needs to go. What would really be ironic is if Coleman ends up at Texas Tech where Mcguires dad is head coach. Dittman, maybe you should find another line of work. You don't know what your doing. You remind me of your dad.

[@RosaGarcia-l3p]

I agree with you McGuire needs to go-so much talent in that wide receiver room going to waste they play only the few chosen ones to show their talent one of the wide receivers in that room is chasing the same dream, but they can't achieve that dream if they aren't given the opportunity. Good luck Malachi you will do great wherever you go

[@RosaGarcia-l3p]

Correction everyone in that wide receiver room needs to get playing time to show their talent afterall they are all chasing the same dream,but they can't achieve that dream if they are not given the opportunity. Good Luck Malachi you will do great wherever you go

[@lukemike2801]

Hopefully the kids on the team can muster up a win to experience a bowl game. Dudes not a team player if hes leaving like this. Transferring is one thing, being a cry baby is another. Nebraska needs tough dudes and this dude was soft.

[@chadelles2586]

please... he was one of the best blocking WRs we had last year. How many times do we watch Neyor jog through a route or not block at all? Who wouldn't be frustrated watching someone who has 1/3 the skillset get all of the playing time

[@bluewave2024]

Not much of a loss though honestly as he never played much. He is either Heisman level talent or below average. We will find out next year I guess.

[@mikes1655]

He wasn't a strong route runner. Maybe coaching (probably) maybe his ability. I know other teams wanted him at DE not WR. It sucks but it doesn't suck as much as Betts. Betts to me was more talented and polished but didn't love football. In the end it hurts because both are homegrown kids that had abilities to get them far. Hope it works out for him wherever he ends up.

[@mattpelan8744]

If Nebraska can get Michael Terry or Cortez Mills this won't hurt as much.

[@mattanderson9689]

Why do you think those guys will do anything at Nebraska when Nebraska is one of the single worst WR development schools in the country the past 30 years? They have 4 stars in the program already who don't do jack shit. Nebraska is where top WR's go to die.

[@michaelcarter5447]

I hope he does well wherever he goes. Didn’t seem like he was going to help Nebraska too much overall, with roster limits this is not a bad thing.

[@chrisowen3264]

Part of rebuilding a program like this is culture and getting kids who buy into that culture who want to be there and the ones that don’t who cares. Indiana isn’t good because they have the best talent they’re good because they have a bunch of kids who’ve bought into what the coach wants to do.

[@xnphoenix432]

i mean barney is the only one who wants it in the WR room

[@RoryCobbsJr.]

🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️ ugh. I understand him wanting to leave, but the timing is questionable. I believe that he is a good kid, so I definitely think there is more to the story. It doesn't matter, though. What really stinks, though, is that a kid with so much potential didn't get some more opportunities, especially with the way the starters have not produced consistently enough this year. Welp... go be great somewhere, man! Wish you the best! #flylikechi And GBR 🏈🌽🎈☠️

[@WilsonDittmanSports]

@@RoryCobbsJr. agree man. Wasted potential, hopefully he thrives elsewhere! Gbr

[@stevengegg6405]

i know he's disappointed by not playing ,but Nebraska has a great History of developing players too the point where his could have become another Irving Fryer, or Matt Davidson, maybe Tom Waddle. so he must not be a team player

[@robertofraire4102]

This was the biggest miss of the year for the coaching staff. Unbelievable

[@WolverineIsRB1]

Elaborate please. We'd love to hear about this big miss.

[@robertofraire4102]

@ #67 player in the country coming out of high school. Not being able to develop him speaks volumes! He’s 6’5 runs a 4.4 second. 40 yard dash…. You had two years too develop him. Tell me. Who have you seen the coaching staff develop this year? But you’re probably right though. Because Lloyd not getting any playing time all year is the biggest travesty in the wide receiver room

[@WolverineIsRB1]

@@robertofraire4102 I can agree with you on Lloyd... That is sad. However, maybe it's Coleman's fault? Maybe he can't wrap his head around the playbook? Maybe he doesn't want to block? One of, if not the biggest knock on him coming out of high school, is that he was lazy and took plays off. Believe me! I want a 6 5, 4.4 guy on our team, but he isn't willing to put in the work, I can see why he isn't on the field. Maybe we didn't miss on him, maybe he missed out on an amazing opportunity?

[@robertofraire4102]

@ maybe man. I heard the same thing. But I just find it had to believe he was worse than Banks. I think Banks has been overrated since he’s been here. Idk man. The coaches decision making has been questionable all year. Why was Hill on the field?? Why is Gifford still out there? Nelson burned his redshirt to play special teams. Bonner should probably just be a running back. There’s so much you look at and ask why…

[@WolverineIsRB1]

@@robertofraire4102 yea, I don't know man... Rhule definitely loves his seniors. To a fault even. We need to have the best 11 out there. It doesn't seem like we do that very often and I have no idea why? It is very frustrating though. I think we're better than we're showing. We need to figure something out. Hopefully Holgorsen can find some magic somewhere....

[@richardarrieta5006]

Let him go. Lets concentrate on some 4 an d 5 star lineman and some big bruising running backs. The passing game is not been working. Lets get back to ground and pound

[@femaleKCRoyalsFan]

I was hoping he was the secret weapon that was going to be used on Saturday I had such high hopes for him. This makes me really sad

[@jasonpatterson2143]

The secret weapon is Clark and he's legit.

[@JetScreamer24]

This is exactly why I don't like this portal nonsense. A player can disrupt a team in mid season because he doesn't like his situation or how they think they are being treated. You shouldn't be allowed to leave a team during the season and enter the portal right away, without some penalty, you should have to finish out the season. This is only going to get worse unless some rules and regulations are established.

[@adriansalas9596]

I hate this but I understand. I totally agree with you on our WR room being stacked. Dang

[@Fast_Travel_Gamer]

Quitters gonna quit.

[@timostransky468]

That is sad bc he was a good blocker down field not only just looking for the pass

[@rodsynovec1626]

Is there an attitude issue with him?

[@mjitalia7249]

Coleman is a bust if he can't play on this roster.

[@mm-xe9oh]

if the guy was good all these questions and concerns just wouldn't be there

[@danielwadsworth11]

I can’t believe this, Coleman is the best receiver on the team and we just let him go because we’ve been meat riding Isaiah neyor and Jamal banks who are mid as hell. I’ll bet Jaylen loyd and Gabe Irvin are gonna leave to. Matt rhule is just waisting all the potential he’s been given for old heads. Absolutely unbelievable. I really thought Coleman and raiola were the future of Nebraska. I can’t blame him tho. I would leave to if I was a 4 star with limitless potential riding the bench all sophomore season

[@chadelles2586]

Yeah, McGuire needs to be fired. The guys sucks. We need to be able to get separation and stretch the field. Neyor and Banks are spare at best and many times give little effort. Both Coleman and Lloyd can stretch the field.

[@jimmyk6336]

All signs point to what? The rumors? Is it official?

[@charleslewis1522]

You're also jumping to conclusions in saying that he won't wind up playing for a Power 4 team.

[@colinschenck2129]

Being such a high recruit and not seeing the field at all..must not have a very good work ethic, be that great, or just not grasping the college level

[@chadelles2586]

[@AlHusker]

I should have looked at some other comments first. If he's lazy and don't put in the effort then who cares.

[@AdrianAllen-cn3uk]

I walked on to Nebraska in 1991 when I got out the military. I made the team as a walk on and was asked by Coach Ron Brown to join the team. I quit because I was married and she joined the Air Force. I haven't recovered yet in life. So sometimes you only get that one chance if you blow it that's it Dream ends.

What a dumpster fire Rhule has going. Train wreck extravaganza. Already fired his OC desperately, lost a 4 star offensive lineman recruit this week, Malachi Coleman bails, and the head coach is sitting at 0-8 in games to go to a bowl game. Rhule has been a massive disappointment to date. Total failure. Nebraska football remains a national embarrassment. And how do we know Coleman isn't any good?
