A former five-star prospect in the 2024 class made an incredible play on Saturday, going airborne to make a terrific touchdown catch. He had multiple touchdowns in the game, but his third was phenomenal. True freshmen like Alabama Crimson Tide receiver Ryan Williams and Ohio State Buckeyes receiver Jeremiah Smith have hit the ground running in their college careers, leading their team in receiving yards this season.
However, another true freshman receiver showcased his talents on Saturday for the Auburn Tigers. Cam Coleman made an insane grab over a UL Monroe defender in the second half of Saturday's game. Auburn quarterback Payton Thorne threw a pass to Coleman towards the front corner of the end zone, and the Tigers wideout made a one-handed catch, falling backward for the score.

He hails from Phenix City, Alabama, and was also the top prospect in his home state. UL Monroe is Auburn's final non-conference opponent. The Tigers play the Texas A&M Aggies next on Nov.
