LINCOLN, Neb. (KMTV) — Chalk up another recruiting win for new Nebraska men's basketball coach Fred Hoiberg as the Huskers landed highly-touted JUCO point guard Cam Mack on Saturday night.
The three-star Mack is ranked as the #3 JUCO prospect for 2019 according to jucorecruiting.com. He originally signed with St. John's but was granted his release after Chris Mullin resigned as head coach.
Mack can play immediately for the Big Red and will have three years of eligibility. He was also offered by Gonzaga, Oregon & UCLA.
The 6-foot-2, 180 pounder averaged 19 points and 7.5 assists per game last season at Salt Lake Community College.
Mack made his announcement to come to Nebraska on Twitter.
