As Nebraska basketball’s portal search continues, a new visitor will make his way to Lincoln next week.

Ty’Reek Coleman, a freshman guard from Illinois State, has locked in an official visit for Tuesday and Wednesday, April 14-15.

Coleman also set visits with Kansas State (April 12-13), Utah State (April 16-17), and Iowa (April 17-18).

A 6-foot-2 native of Aurora, Illinois, Coleman averaged 10.0 points and 1.8 assists while shooting 41.6% on 89 attempts from behind the arc in his first and only season with the Redbirds.

He only started 19 of his 35 appearances this season, but he made the most of his opportunities. Coleman posted 15 double-figure scoring efforts on the year, including posting 16 at USC and 17 vs. Auburn in the NIT semifinals.

A former three-star prospect at Waubonsie Valley High School, Coleman was a two-time Illinois Basketball Coaches Association (IBCA) All-State Selection. He scored 1,339 career points with a school-record 168 steals over his prep career.

Nebraska currently has five available spots on its 2025-26 roster.
