Eric Reibe, the four-star center from the Bullis School (MD), has trimmed his list to five schools, he told ZAGSBLOG. He’ll commit on Wednesday, Oct. 16 at 3:30 p.m. ET live to 247Sports.
Ranked the No. 4 big man in the Class of 2025 per 247Sports.com, the 7-foot big man is down to Kansas, UConn, Creighton, Indiana and Oregon.
He broke down each school for ZAGSBLOG:
UConn: “What’s stands out to me about UConn is their player development, especially with [Donovan] Clingan. Their play style fits me as well, using me for handoffs, pick-and-rolls, pops and play-making. Coach [Dan] Hurley‘s training environment and recent championships speak for itself.”
Kansas: “Kansas‘s play style fits me a lot, especially after watching [Hunter] Dickinson, who’s leaving after this year. So there’s an immediate opportunity for me to step in and fill in that role. A lot of opportunities for minutes, coach [Bill] Self‘s winning history is very impressive as well.”
Creighton: “Creighton‘s play style fits me a lot too, because of [Ryan] Kalkbrenner‘s role on the offensive and defensive side. There will be a lot of available minutes since this is his last year. Coach [Greg] McDermott was a big man too, so he knows how I think and work on the court.”
Indiana: “Indiana‘s player development stood out to me a lot, especially with what they did with Trayce Jackson–Davis and Kel’el Ware. There are a lot of seniors so there’s a big opportunity to get minutes early on. The training and playing style is all NBA style because of Coach [Mike] Woodson.“
Oregon: “Oregon’s opportunity for playing time is huge as well since they have a lot of seniors in their last year. All of their resources are very important too to develop my body to the max. Coach [Dana] Altman wants to utilize my playmaking skills as well.”
