It's crazy that you could make a case for him playing just about any defensive position outside of interior DL or MLB. https://247sports.com/Article/Polynesian-Bowl-Recruiting-Notebook-nico-iamaleava-rodrick-pleasant-malachi-coleman-matayo-uiagalelei-duce-robinson-Francis-Mauigoa-caleb-lomu-utah-ute-georgia-bulldogs--203105724/ I was thinking he would probably be better suited to the defensive side of the ball. But it sounds like he has really showed well as a WR at the All-Star games so I'm thinking he'll stay offense now. 1 Quote Link to comment

I know he has speed for days but nobody really talks about his route-running skills or his blocking as a wr. Maybe that's why he wasn't a 5 star player but I certainly think he is.

Yeah, I saw a couple write-ups mentioning he looked natural as a WR and wasn't just the straight line guy they expected. He's got an incredible ceiling no matter where you put him, and he doesn't have to add a bunch of weight (Edge, TE). Technique will always need to step up in college but he's already more polished as a WR than as a DB. I'm sure he could do it but high school WR/DE to SEC CB would've been a challenging adjustment.

Mavric Posted January 21, 2023 Author Share Posted January 21, 2023 Oddly enough Coleman does not appear to have any Polynesian heritage. Even though he lives in California. 2 Quote Link to comment

Farms Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 I’m pleasantly surprised how Malachi has been performing at these camps. It seems more and more plausible that Coleman could get on the field at least a little bit year one. Quote Link to comment
