Tevin Coleman told ESPN's Joe Schad that he will enter the 2015 NFL Draft this morning.

Indiana's all-time single season leader in rushing yards put up 2,036 yards on the season, averaging around 7.5 yards per carry. A source close to the situation had previously indicated that Coleman may wait until after January 1 to decide his fate, but the decision today still should not come as much of a shock to Kevin Wilson's staff or to Hoosier fans.

There has been no report on whether or not Coleman has signed with an agent at this time, but this is likely a formality. Coleman could still withdraw his name at a later date if he recieves poor feedback from the NFL's evaluators and has not signed with an agent. Still, the feedback process usually occurs prior to announcing for the draft -- and any return is unlikely. With Coleman gone, Indiana will likely enter the spring with sophomore Devine Redding atop the depth chart -- unless former UAB back & 1,600 yard-rusher Jordan Howard opts for the Hoosiers over Vanderbilt in the coming days.

Where will Coleman go in the draft? That depends who you ask:

Our own Dan Kadar doesn't have him listed in the first round of his latest mock draft.

Highly-respected scouting site Ourlads has Coleman as the 43rd-best prospect available.

DraftTek is the outlier of the group, having Coleman slotted to come off the board in the 4th round at 110th overall, behind Miami's Duke Johnson.
