Iowa Loses Out on 2026 Four-Star Guard

Finkelstein added, "he takes very good care of the ball and is a solid passer." Highlights were shown of Coleman balling out, including plenty of drained three-pointers and highlight reel plays.

When Coleman was introduced, he made sure everyone knew he was with his parents and teammates. While his sister was unable to make it, he was joined by his father (who taught him how to play basketball), mother, and teammates.

Coleman stood up from the table to unzip his sweatshirt, revealing a Wake Forest t-shirt. Of his final four, the Demon Deacons were the first to host an official visit. Having done so on August 22, that proved to be much more beneficial than the Hawkeyes attempt to land Coleman on September 26.

After revealing the shirt and putting on a Wake Forest hat, Coleman revealed what went into his decision, "Just the relationship with Forest and the players. When I was on my visit I knew that's where I wanted to be. I felt that was like home."

Coleman said that he wants to go through the roller-coaster of emotions with people that feel like family, and that's exactly what he got when he visited Wake Forest.

Finkelstein then asked Coleman to describe who exactly the Demon Deacons are getting, as a person and a player, "As a person they're getting someone that's a goofy guy and likes to have fun."

He added, "On the court and as a player, I'm a guy that is willing to do whatever it takes to win. If I'm not scoring that game I'll go grab a rebound."

Now that Coleman's decision has been revealed, the Hawkeyes will have to regroup and look elsewhere to bolster their Class of 2026.
