Coleman played in 28 games in 2023-24, all off the bench, and averaged 5.9 points per game. He made 34% of his 3-point shots and averaged less than 19 minutes per contest. Coleman scored in double figures four times during his junior campaign and poured in 24 in a loss against Massachusetts-Lowell in November.

A four-star prospect out of the class of 2021, Coleman came to Tech from West Nassau County High School (Florida) and averaged 6.2 points as a freshman. He started 31 games as a sophomore and upped his scoring averaged to 9.5 ppg. Coleman also made 57 3-pointers that season.

Coleman joins guard Amaree Abram, forward Tyzhaun Claude and center Ebenezer Dowuona as Jackets to enter the transfer portal this offseason.
