We would use Coleman pretty much just like we currently use Sully too. Hopefully he keeps watching Sully. I think he ends up staying close to home (gut feeling), but he'd be a perfect fit in Ohio State's system and would shine.

All hail The Thad.

I enjoyed the recent point shaving rumors about Syracuse ... just another thing to turn off recruits (at least, recruits who aren't into that sort of thing)!

I hate that any respectable media person would even acknowledge that rumor. Boeheim put it best (from the article linked above):

One of those anonymous types had blogged something scandalous about certain members of the SU team on Tuesday evening and it had been bandied about until he'd anonymously recanted in the hours before Wednesday?s tip.

"If you talk about that, if you even ask me a question about that, you?re worse than the guy who put it out there," Boeheim said of that point-shaving gossip that had made the electronic rounds for the better part of a day. "If nobody talks about it, if nobody writes about it, if nobody puts it on the air, it?s nothing. Talk about it, write about it . . . you?re worse than him."

"The story," Boeheim said, "should be: ?Why are we talking about this?? Are you going to ask me about everything that goes on those blogs? ?Jim Boeheim robbed a store.? Are you going to ask me about that?

"People calling me. People calling our people. People calling our players. It?s wrong. It should never have been done. There?s nothing there. And there?s nothing murky here. These are not murky times. If people go on those blogs and take stuff at face value, they?re idiots."

Kentucky & Syracuse Showing Coleman The Most Love
By NealNieves
? March 24, 2011

When you are among the top recruits in the country everybody shows you love, but when you tell people certain schools that are showing the most love it really says something about those schools. This time its 2012 big man DaJuan Coleman and his AAU coach tell Adam Zagoria that Syracuse (home school) and Kentucky (the school that is landing every top 10 recruit), No surprise here.

?Kentucky and Syracuse are showing him the most love of late,? Coleman?s AAU coach Jim Hart told Adam Zagoria. Coleman told Zagoria that he is no rush to make a desicion and hart added ?that it will probably come down to some school and Syracuse?.

So for now it looks like Syracuse is the team to beat for Coleman, the question can Kentucky hold the second spot and maybe even steal him away ?

Top basketball prospect Dajuan Coleman plans to take his time to decide on a college
Published: Tuesday, April 05, 2011

J-D's Dajuan Coleman carries the ball against CBA's Brian Anderson.

Dajuan Coleman scored 22 points on Tuesday night to lead his John's Auto Care team to an 84-71 win over B&R Glass in the first game of the Zebra Classic, a showcase for Central New York's best high school basketball players.

Coaches for both teams made frequent substitutions, which means Coleman played a bit more than half the game. At a broad-shouldered 6-foot-9, he was physically unmatched by anyone who tried to guard him. Coleman scored many of his points off dunks, one of those a put-back slam from the second spot on the free throw rebounding lane. He is powerful and deceptively quick inside for all of his bulk.

But he also displayed a more mature overall game. He put the ball on the floor and got past defenders. He attempted (and missed) a 3-pointer. He made one perfect pass from the high post to a cutter on the baseline.

He still needs to work on his free throw shooting, especially since he draws so many fouls. And he still needs to shed some weight.

Just a junior, Coleman said Tuesday he would not commit to a college until mid-way through his senior season. He plans to take all five of his college visits. And he said he has not narrowed his search. Syracuse and Kentucky are in the mix. But so are other schools, he said.

He wants to take his time to decide.
