Baylor wide receiver Corey Coleman said Saturday he will enter the upcoming NFL draft. 

The Bears lost 23–17 to Texas in their regular season finale Saturday. Coleman said after the game he will go pro. 

“Every time I think about the decision, I get really sad because I love this place,” Coleman said. “I'm just thankful in coach [Art] Briles for believing in me.”
