Cole is a natural born athlete. He's 6'4, with a 6'8 wingspan, and can jump out the gym not to mention that Miami Heat's PG Norris Cole is his cousin as well as Philadelphia Eagles LB/DE Trent Cole, so its safe to say being in athlete is in his blood. Cole is a proven winner. He led his team to state championship his senior year in Ohio, which has stiff competition every year.Cole can flat out score the ball. He has a nice jump shot as well as the craftiness to get to the rim he is basically instant offense for the Pioneers.

Cole is known as a big sleep. He comes to practice sleepy goes to class sleepy he even wakes up sleepy, but do not let his sleepy demeanor fool you. Lamont Cole can look like he has not slept in days and go out there and score 20 points easy! 2013-2014 season Cole will be looked upon to have a major impact on this team due to his length and ability to effect shots he will be asked to guard some of the Mountain East most prolific scorers.
