The sliver of hope that Michigan State fans still held for Keon Coleman to return has seemingly vanished as he’s down to two schools.<\/h2>\n

It’s officially time to move on, folks. Keon Coleman<\/a> isn’t coming home.<\/p>\n

After entering his name into the transfer portal a couple of weeks ago, Coleman has taken visits to Florida State and Ole Miss, and some, including myself, felt like Michigan State still had a fighter’s chance.<\/p>\n

Not anymore, it seems.<\/p>\n

According to a report from 247Sports<\/a>, Coleman is deciding between two programs and an announcement could come at any moment. Those two programs are Ole Miss and Florida State. Texas A&M looked to be in the running as well, but the Aggies landed Jahdae Walker last week from Grand Valley. He canceled his visit to Texas A&M after they picked up Walker’s commitment.<\/p>\n

Michigan State could obviously use Coleman as he would be the clear WR1 just as he was last year with Jayden Reed fighting through a couple of minor injuries and inconsistent quarterback play.<\/p>\n

It just feels like Coleman wants to go to a program that’s likely to contend this year and has a proven quarterback. Florida State has Jordan Travis who some believe could be a darkhorse Heisman candidate and Ole Miss has Jaxson Dart as well as Spencer Sanders and Will Howard.<\/p>\n

But what those programs won’t be able to offer is the guaranteed No. 1 receiver role. Florida State has a borderline 1,000-yard receiver returning and Ole Miss landed two quality wideouts in the transfer portal already. Michigan State has a few unproven but talented wideouts as well as senior Tre Mosley. Coleman would return as the clear go-to target.<\/p>\n

However, it looks like Antonio Gates Jr., Tyrell Henry, Jaron Glover, Christian Fitzpatrick, and Montorie Foster are going to have to grow up in a hurry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
