After a whirlwind last 10 days the Washington Huskies finally got some good news with the commitment of Arizona running back Jonah Coleman.

Rated as one of the top 10 players in the Transfer Portal, the former Wildcat will join the Cam Davis as a 1-2 punch.
At 5-9 and 225 pounds, per Pro Football Focus, he was one of the nation’s most efficient backs in the country with 1,154 all purpose yards—earning honorable mention in conference honors.
He entered the portal 5 days ago and was one of the first players to visit UW for new UW head coach Jedd Coleman.
While many Wildcat players used a hashtag supporting bringing back Johnny Nansen, Coleman dropped his own rebuttal hashtag #StickingWithScottie in reference to following his running backs coach Scottie Graham to Washington.
Last season he carried the ball 128 times for 871 yards and 5 TDs. He also caught 25 passes for 283 yards and a TD.
It is unknown when me will be officially enrolled at Washington. It is expected that between 8 and 10 more players will commit to Washington in the coming days.
