I want to give a big thank you to one of the finest young men to ever wear a Bison uniform. Freddy Coleman is all class. He has experienced the joy of victory at NDSU and the agony of defeat. He was a member of the first Bison team to qualify for the Big Dance. He suffered through devastating injuries and other disappointments. Through it all, he was a tremendous leader and the kind of young man I hope my son grows up to be.

Thank you Freddy!

I am not sure there have been too many perimeter defenders better than Freddy.

Can he pull a Lorenzo Riley and play football this fall?

Good luck Freddy!

Freddy started the ORU game defending Dominique Morrison. Morrison didn't have a field goal in the first 13 minutes. :)

Here is Freddy off the court (http://www.ag.ndsu.edu/news/newsreleases/2010/july-19-2010/help-kids-choose-healthful-snacks/plonearticle_image_popup?image_id=77ad74d49e65faf7 b2f665410d917b6e), demonstrating "how to make a quick, easy-to-prepare, healthful snack for kids." :hungry:

Couldn't agree with the sentiment of this thread more. Say what you want about Freddy's performance on the court but the guy is all class and a heck of a nice guy. One of the best on-ball defenders I've seen and looking at how cut he got in the course of a year you can tell Bison Basketball was his heart and soul. Best of luck to him moving on.

If you still don't know what Freddy is all about, read this article (http://www.bisonillustrated.com/s.php?s=502) by Josh Reimnitz in Bison Illustrated.

I'll never forget the posterization Freddy had two years ago over the Utah Valley center. That was one of the most amazing plays I've ever seen in a Bison game.
