On Sunday, former Pitt guard Femi Odukale committed to Seton Hall after playing two seasons with the Panthers.
Odukale entered the transfer portal after the conclusion of this season. As a sophomore, the 6-foot-5 guard averaged 10.8 points, 3.4 assists, and 3.5 rebounds per game for the Panthers. He shot 41% from the field and 33% from three-point range across his two college seasons. Odukale has three years of eligibility remaining for the Pirates and new head coach Shaheen Holloway.
In his career at Pitt, Odukale averaged 8.2 points, 3 rebounds, and 2.5 assists per game. The native of Brooklyn, New York exploded for 28 points this season against Jacksonville, hitting five threes.
Former Pitt Transfer Guard Femi Odukale Receiving Plenty of Early Interest
Odukale was a three-star recruit in the class of 2020 coming out of a prep year in Massachusetts. He chose Pitt over Seton Hall, Virginia Tech, and others, but now takes his talents to the Pirates two years later.
Best wishes Femi … unfortunate that it didn’t work out here.
Step up in Coaching for the young man. Best of luck
Couldn’t be a step down….that’s for sure. This new coach did take St Peters to the Sweet 16….so whoever gave this a thumbs down….are know nothings.
If you don’t learn how to shoot from the outside and from the FT line and pass….you are going to mess it up. The one on one stuff, to the basket don’t fly against good competition. Only in some matchups where you are the bigger player and the defender gets no help.
