Nebraska Cornhuskers land ESPN 300 athlete Malachi Coleman

Mickey Joseph doesn't know if he'll be the permanent head coach at Nebraska after this season, but it didn't stop him from landing ESPN 300 athlete Malachi Coleman.

The No. 157 prospect committed to Nebraska on Saturday, choosing the Huskers over USC, Georgia, Michigan, Oklahoma, Ole Miss and Oregon. Coleman is the top prospect in the state of Nebraska, and a 6-foot-4, 185-pound recruit out of Lincoln East High School.

Joseph was named the interim head coach after Scott Frost was fired in September after a 1-2 start to the season.
