MBB Adds JUCO Transfer

So has their sixth incoming player for this year, this one a JUCO transfer.  His name is Madani Diarra, from Indian Hills CC in Iowa.  (Per The Blade).

He played last year with Davin Zeigler, who is now at Wisconsin-Green Bay.

He is a big at 6'11" and 255 pounds.  He went to Benedict Prep in NJ, with most of his senior year spent recovering from an ACL. It's a really good team.  He had 21 rebounds in one game.

He went to St. Louis, where he played only 10 minutes for a really good team.  He went to Eastern Illinois, where he made 3 starts and averaged 3.1 PPG and 3.5 RPG in 257 minutes for the season.

He left there to go to Indian Hills, where he played one season. He played 16 games with 1 start and averaged just under 10 minutes a game. He scored 2.4 PPG and had 2.6 rpg.

“Madani is a strong, physical presence, and can affect the game in many ways, but especially with his defense and rebounding,” Indian Hills coach Hank Plona told The Blade.

He will have two seasons.

Welcome to the Falcons, Madani.
