Coleman followed Washington as a child and says the Huskies are solidly his top choice. "They are like a mile from where I live and they were always the school I followed," Coleman said. "My mom really wants me to go there too. She wants what's best for me, but she'd like it if I stayed close to home...I really like coach Tyrone Willingham. He's a good person..."

Huskies | Huskies land top state recruit Deandre Coleman from Garfield | Seattle Times Newspaper

Quote:

Willingham, whose uncertain future had some worried about recruiting, received a commitment Thursday from Garfield High School defensive tackle Deandre Coleman, considered by many to be the top senior in the state.

Coleman had previously indicated that he would wait to commit until after the season and take all of his official visits, but he decided this week he would rather have his commitment out of the way before the football season began. High-school practice begins Wednesday.
