”It’s been a joy so far to coach him.”
Since enrolling early into Auburn, five-star Cam Coleman has Tiger fans excited for the upcoming football season. He has been a standout among his peers during spring practices and wide receiver coach Marcus Davis says he is a coachable player.
“The best thing I like about Cam Coleman is that he wants to be coached and he’s super coachable,” Davis said. “He is going to try to do exactly what you tell him to do and he loves the game of football. It’s easy coaching a player like him because he wants that feedback and he’s coming to us before we get to him in terms on what he needs to do to get better.”
Coleman, listed at 6-foot-3, is the second-highest-rated recruit to sign with the Tigers. In his senior year of high school, he caught 61 passes for 1,372 yards and 18 touchdowns leading Central-Phenix City to an undefeated regular season and state championship victory. Coleman was also named the AHSAA class 7A back of the year.
“Cam just plays football. He doesn’t think to high or to low about anything he’s just out there having fun.” Davis said. “It’s a joy to coach him because having a young man that’s bought in to what you’re coaching them and to the program is just amazing.”
