Does anyone know what the deal with this kid is? Why is he ranked so low? How many 7 footers with NBA bodies that can run a pick n roll, hit a jump shot and make their free throws are out there? Are we still recruiting him?

No offense to OP but we need to stop making threads for kids when there’s no news

On Coleman, Hurley isn’t recruiting him
I respectfully disagree. We had interest in him. How many 7' centers are there out there who can shoot the three? The OP asks an interesting question as to why there isn't more high major interest. Looking at his videos you can see a lot of what he does offensively away from the basket won't work in D1 but that said there are many less germane threads on this board. He still has a full year of high school left. We have threads about pizza, beer, Arbys etc and I like all of them and I'm not complaining. But saying this isn't a worthwhile thread given that is unfortunate.

It's just strange, there are 7 footers who can't stay on the floor more than 5 minutes at a time ranked within the top 150. This kid has legitimate basketball skills, albeit in slow motion, but kids like this just don't come around very often. He plays a lot of minutes. He also plays right up the road from us.

Rivals still shows a UConn offer among a stellar group including UNLV, South Florida and Stony Brook as the headliners.

Hurley has never recruited him. UConn isn’t recruiting him. We’re putting recruiting tags on threads that don’t merit them. If there was news about a recruit, it would have been posted. There’s no need to create new threads to ask questions that can be answered by using the search function IMO.

If people don’t care generally then have at it, but it seems like lately 1 out of every 3 recruiting threads has basically no new information in them.

Recruiting is fluid I appreciate people bringing up potential recruits and hearing what's going on with them, never know.

Is he playing against some 7-2 guys or something? I feel like he does not look anywhere near 7 feet in those clips. As to the original question, I had thought that he was an interesting prospect in the past. But I would prefer every other big we've been mentioned with over him. Clearly, given that there's not that much national interest in him, there's some other issues beside being a stretch-5.

That kid is a legit 7'? Doesn't look remotely close to it in the vid.
