Illinois basketball coach Brad Underwood said forward Coleman Hawkins will have a positive impact at K-State.
No college basketball coach wants to lose an experienced, 6-foot-10 forward who enjoys the many facets of preparing to play basketball games.
“I know a lot of people there,” Underwood said. “The Wildcats are always close to the heart as a former player and coach there. I’m happy for him. I’m happy for them. They’re getting a really good player.” Coleman’s impact went beyond what he did on the basketball court. He did things away from the court that only a coach can appreciate.
The ability to read a scouting report will come in handy in the rugged Big 12, which will have several teams in the Top 10 all season long.
