Baylor WR Corey Coleman Deserves More Heisman Attention

Through the first half of the college football season, the recent quarterback dominance of the Heisman Trophy looked to be in huge jeopardy thanks to the standout play of several star running backs.

But the early Week 7 action showed it's beyond time for a certain wide receiver—Baylor's Corey Coleman—to be considered as a serious contender to pull the upset over the signal-callers.

Coleman recorded 10 receptions for 199 and three touchdowns Saturday in No. 2 Baylor's home rout of Big 12 foe West Virginia, which handed the Bears their only loss of 2014.

The junior wide receiver's three scores gave him an incredible 16 touchdowns for 2015, breaking the school's single-season record set by Kendall Wright in 2011.
