Keon Coleman gives special shoutout to Michigan State (Video)
Former Michigan State wide receiver Keon Coleman is already making quite the name for himself across the country. The two-year Spartan wide receiver who transferred to Florida State for one season was selected in the second round of the 2024 NFL Draft to the Buffalo Bills.
Since then, Coleman has become an internet phenom.
Many clips have done the rounds on social media because the rest of the country is finding out just how funny Coleman is. But amongst all of the funny clips going viral, he gave a huge shoutout to Michigan State for being the school he learned the most from.
In the above video, Coleman is meeting with Bills staff members soon after getting drafted. One of the coaches asked Coleman "Where'd you learn ball from?" Coleman's response was everything Michigan State fans could have hoped for.
Coleman responded, "Just my time at Michigan State, just becoming a film junkie and asking questions."
We all know how heartbreaking it was when Coleman transfered to Florida State last offseason, but that hasn't stopped Coleman from being a huge supporter and having a lot of love for Michigan State. And in all honesty, I get the feeling that he even views himself more as a Spartan than a Seminole.
Coleman talks about his golf game
Now I couldn't write something about Coleman without mentioning one of his clips that went viral online on Thursday. Later in the same video above, the Bills staff asked Coleman what he does outside of football. Coleman listed a few of his other hobbies, one of those being golf. This answer for whatever reason shocked the Bills staff, and Coleman's quick response might be one of the funniest things I have heard in quite some time.
When talking about his golf game, Coleman said, "I'm 'Tiger WishHeCould'. I'm not Tiger Woods."
Does it get anymore Keon Coleman than that. Not only is he an elite receiver and one of the best in this year's NFL draft class, but he very well might be the funniest and more outgoing players as well. This is something us Michigan State fans came to know during his time in East Lansing, and I'm glad the rest of the country is able to see it now.
