The guard from Indianapolis chose the Fighting Illini over offers from Indiana, Michigan, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Arizona, and a host of other schools.
Coleman becomes the third commitment to coach John Groce from the class of 2015, joining four-stars D.J. Williams and Aaron Jordan. Together, they currently make up 247Sports' No. 6 team nationally and No. 2 in the Big Ten.
