He was a great guy. I met him once during a Miami U basketball camp. If you thought he was eccentric on TV... You need to have been around him in person. A little cooky but he was a genuine guy and will be a legend forever at the original MU.

Charlie Coles was truly a great guy. I wished I would have had the chance to interview him. I could sit there honestly for hours and listen to some of the stories he had. He was truly an interesting man and I know that the former players absolutely loved him. I still laugh really hard at his post game press conferences, most notibly, the UK/Miami post game presser. That was true Charlie Coles. Joking around and not angry at all. The game of baskeball truly lost someone special.
