The promise of young big man Dajuan Coleman has been well-documented by The Fizz.
All the boards have him getting the heavy heat from Syracuse, and it appears to most as if the team already has an offer extended to the class of 2012.
The Jamesville-Dewitt prospect is an imposing interior presence at 6’8″, 250. And with the initials DC, you know who he’ll forever be compared to if he laces up for the Orange.
So we know SU wants him; what about the other way around? Well, fans, you can rest easy.
Coleman did an interview with Yahoo while playing in an AAU jam a couple weeks ago. The word from Coleman was a good one on SU.
“I’ve been watching them ever since I was growing up. They are one of my top schools.”
“Basically it is the same schools. Syracuse, Kentucky, Ohio State, and North Carolina are talking to me right now.”
It’s good to know that the love is mutual between the two. Coleman also¬†mentioned his love for the way Kentucky played (damn SEC) but hey, he’s a¬†young kid, so you can give him a break.
Keep an eye on the kid: The Fizz isn’t the only one to rave about his play.¬†I’ve seen him in action, and his footwork is great. But now the rest of the country is¬†getting in on DC 2.0.
