On Saturday against Alabama A&M, the stage will finally be Coleman’s.
“I’ll be honest, I ate my last four waffles yesterday. Because I’ve been in fall camp, I ain’t really had time to go grocery shopping for real so I’m all out of Eggos,” Coleman told reporters on Aug. 15 — a day after his 18th birthday.Being out of frozen waffles is a fitting concern for an 18-year-old, who just months ago moved away from home for the first time and was still learning how to go grocery shopping for himself.
Asked if he knew the show’s theme song, the rookie wide receiver bashfully obliged: “Uhhh… West Philadelphia, born and raised… something about ‘where I spent most of my days,’” Coleman said before trailing off.The NBC sitcom starring Will Smith first aired in 1990 and later called it quits in May of 1996 — over 10 years prior to Coleman being born on August 14, 2006.
“I haven’t really thought about it too much. I’m just worried about playing ball,” Coleman said when asked about the pressure in the spring. “The dude’s got bunnies,” Auburn linebacker Austin Keys said of Coleman. “ It’s something I’ve never seen in my life. It’s just different, generational stuff.” But in watching and talking to the young Auburn receiver, whose name was found on practically every preseason all-Freshman team there was during the offseason, no one would guess he’s on such a limitless trajectory.
So Coleman spent his morning washing the dishes, even if it meant him being a little late to the bowling alley.
