Michigan has also showed interest. "Some might point out the negatives of his body type, like the lack of vertical explosiveness, but then you see him play a few games and his strengths are clear," Burlison said."He has tremendous hands, knows how to play around the basket, can play with his back to the basket and passes very well. "He might be one of the best passing big men in the class." Swanigan is potentially joined by an‑ other Hoosier state standout on NCSU's wish list. Coleman narrowed his list to NC State, Notre Dame, Illinois, Michigan, UNLV and Indiana on June 27. The 6‑3, 180‑pound Coleman has set up one offi‑ cial visit — to Notre Dame Sept. 5 — and the Fighting Irish are the perceived leader in his recruitment. "Coleman might be slightly shorter than the ideal size of a two guard, but at the college level, I think he'll be great," Bossi said. "He is a really talented jump shooter. What I like about Coleman is that he can shoot it off the catch or off the dribble. There are a lot of guys who are much more comfortable one way or the other. "What has been underrated about Cole‑ man is that when he locks in, he's a pretty good defensive two guard." Coleman is known for going on scoring binges with his streaky, hot shooting. "He is a scorer and very good, and showed more with the ball in terms of decision making and scoring off the bounce," Burlison said. ■ For regular reports on NC State basketball recruiting plus videos of Wolfpack commitments and targets visit TheWolfpacker.com.
