Four-star prospect Matt Coleman will play basketball at Texas and not Duke, he announced early Monday afternoon on an ESPNU broadcast.
Coleman, a 6-1, 174-pound guard, was one of the top-rated point guards in the country. He plays basketball at Oak Hill Academy.
It came down to two schools in the end, Duke and Texas.
But during the broadcast, Coleman pulled a Texas hat out of a box, and said he’d be going there. He thanked his parents and the coaches who recruited him. Coleman said he watched both teams play closely and chose Texas because he knew they needed him more.
