Coleman commits to in-state Gophers

One of the lasting memories of the Peach Jam this season was the recurring scene of Joe Coleman driving to his right and finishing at the rim.

It’s something Minnesota fans will have to get used to in a couple of years, as Coleman committed to the Golden Gophers on Friday.

“This is where I wanted to be,” he said. “Feels good to get it off my chest.”

The 6-foot-3 guard from Hopkins (Minn.) chose the in-state school over Santa Clara and Iowa State.

“I had the best feeling about being here,” Coleman said.
