If they haven’t already, recruitment enthusiasts should get to know Bobby Coleman, a Class of 2027 quarterback.
Bobby Coleman Jr., a Class of 2027 (rising sophomore) from Phenix City (Ala.) Central, stood out among a loaded field of quarterbacks during last weekend’s Elite 11 Atlanta regional.
“Coleman has a maturity in his game that is uncommon for someone his age,” noted 247Sports National Analyst Cooper Petagna. “Between the ability to change speeds, layer the football, and play with downfield accuracy, the Phenix City native possesses some traits that are extremely difficult to come by at this point of his career.”
Coleman, who told 247Sports he measured 5-foot-10 1/2, 168 pounds on Sunday, is Auburn freshman wide receiver and 2024 five-star Cam Coleman’s younger brother.
“I felt like I got a really good self-evaluation,” Coleman told 247Sports after Sunday’s event. “Learning from a lot of guys around me and the coaches.”
Only a few quarterbacks from 2027 participated.
“It’s pretty cool, I’m just blessed with the opportunity to be out there,” said Coleman.
His Power 4 offers include Auburn, Georgia, and Texas A&M.
Coleman plans to attend a game in Athens in the fall.
“I’m not really a Georgia fan, to be honest,” Coleman joked. “I’ve been with the Tide since I was a young man. But Georgia is an excellent institution with outstanding coaching.”
He intends to camp at Alabama, Auburn, Clemson, Florida, Florida State, and Georgia this summer. Michigan and North Carolina have also gotten engaged early on.
Coleman’s recruiting is in its early stages, but he’s on track to become a highly sought-after prospect in his class.
“I’m looking for whatever fits me, if I fit well in the offense, and whatever the position is looking like by my time,” Coleman went on to say.
He’s been on a couple recruitment trips, but just as a sidekick for his brother. Coleman will soon make an appearance on college campuses as the main focus.
“My brother has helped pave the way for me,” Coleman added. “Learning about college football as a business and how everything operates before pursuing the same road. It’s War Eagle and Roll Tide for him. The only time you’ll hear me mention War Eagle is at his games.”
