Charles Coleman update

Also an update on Noah Kamba. Both guys were offered by the former staff (Coleman on 5/10/17 and Kamba on 6/28/17) and both have visited campus (Coleman took four or five visits). People have been asking about Coleman, but it doesn't seem like Hurley is pursuing either.

No Reclass, No Sneaker, No Problem
The inside-out tandem is now in their third year playing side-by-side, both during the high school season at Dexter Southfield, as well as during the grassroots season with WrightWay Skills.

That process culminated with a NEPSAC championship in March as Dexter won the Class C title. This spring, they’ve continued to push their recruitment to higher levels with LSU head coach Will Wade being the latest to offer both on Wednesday.

While neither player has officially trimmed their list down yet, Coleman is being recruited the hardest by schools like Oklahoma, Arkansas, and UNLV.

UNLV is pursuing Kamba as well along with the likes of Yale, Kansas State, East Carolina, and UMass among others.

Coleman was an interesting prospect; essentially a stretch 5. But it always seemed that he was nowhere near as big as he was listed (sorry, Mau) and that the competition was not overly strong. I greatly prefer the guys we're after now, but Coleman seems to have a legit skill that could be very valuable.

Either would be great 4th options if we strike out on every guy we're recruiting now, but for now we're good

Would have been fun to have a guy named Kamba on the roster.

Coleman was intriguing. 5 that could shoot from the outside and protect the rim. I’d still take him if we have room.

Not playing against top competition regularly has hurt Coleman and Kamba. I'm not saying it's fair, but the exposure you get on the big sneaker circuits really helps kids get their name out there. Most recruiting sites still don't even have a ranking for these two.
