| Coleman is a classic powerback, and is a tough ball-carrier to bring down. He's got tremendous strength and runs with sheer power. |
| Biography: |
| Derrick Coleman finished his junior year with 2,340 yards rushing and 37 touchdowns, averaging 180 yards a game and 10.6 ypc. Also had one touchdown reception.
As a junior at Fullerton (Calif.) Troy, Coleman was the Freeway League MVP, the CIF-SS Division Player of the Year on Offense and was a second team all-Orange County selection. Also a second-team all-state selection; he benches 315 pounds and has a 37-inch vertical jump.
Final senior (7-2) stats: 1,200 yards rushing for 21 touchdowns.
Coleman reports a 3.0 core GPA and a 22 ACT.
Coleman: "I consider myself a power runner. I'm not super fast, but I'm strong and always keep my feet moving. I can get people off me pretty good too.
"But I still want to improve my quickness and be more explosive."
