Keon Coleman would make Florida State the favorite to win the ACC

Elsewhere in the ACC, it looks as if Florida State and Clemson are essentially co-favorites to win the league in the 2023 season. But the Seminoles could have the chance to take it to the next level if they could land Keon Coleman in the transfer portal.

Mike Norvell has already assembled arguably the best transfer class in college football this offseason in addition to returning the majority of the starters from a year ago. Jordan Travis is back after making great strides and the Noles also already have a giant receiving threat who is a mismatch problem for opponents in 6-foot-6 Johnny Wilson.

But why not make it doubly as hard to cover by adding Coleman to the fray too? Coleman took a visit to FSU as his first stop in the portal, so Norvell clearly agrees. And if they added a player of his caliber to a roster that already looks stacked, Florida State might not just be looking at an ACC title chance but also a possible College Football Playoff berth too.

Landing Keon Coleman transfer would be huge for Oklahoma rebounding

Coming off of a 6-7 season in the first year under head coach Brent Venables, Oklahoma is looking to rebound by having much greater success in the 2023 season. And much like Norvell, Venables has hit the transfer portal hard this offseason to try and ensure that.

There have been some great additions, including former Michigan receiver Andrel Anthony, to the Sooners roster. But even with Anthony in the fold, the weapons overall around Dillon Gabriel (or Jackson Arnold, if you want to stir the pot) still leave a bit to be desired.

With Jeff Lebby still at the helm of the Oklahoma offense, there is a chance for this to be one of the most potent attacks in college football. Getting the talent for it to work is critical, though, and adding Coleman to the mix would undoubtedly help ensure that’s the case.
