Comprehensive Rust: course used by the Android tea...
The main reason is that Rust is the first new systems language in a long time. That no big players owned it helped as well.
Go and C# are not systems languages. Maybe a stretch goal at best.

Go is not a systems language? What is it then? General purpose language?
