Top basketball recruit DaJuan Coleman letting the game come to him
Posted Aug 1, 2010
At times, he still looks like a basketball player who's trapped in a football player's body. At 6-8, 280 pounds, DaJuan Coleman is built like a tight end or a defensive end, the positions he played for the Jamesville-DeWitt (DeWitt, N.Y.) football team when he started on the varsity as a freshman. Though he gave up football after freshman year, the same skills that served him well on the gridiron, good footwork and good hands, are making him a hot commodity as a basketball player.
