MJ Collins to Cincinnati | Big 12 Basketball News

MJ Collins is poised to join Cincinnati after a court ruling granted him an extra year of eligibility, making his transfer a major boost for a rebuilding Bearcats squad. The former Utah State guard averaged over 17 points per game last season with sharp shooting and even earned All-Mountain West Second Team honors. His ability to score in bunches — including a 40-point game — could ignite a struggling Cincinnati offense ranked near the bottom nationally. Though he’s bounced around schools and hasn’t always dazzled in power conferences, his shooting efficiency jumped significantly last year, hinting he’s found a system that maximizes his strengths. With Cincinnati’s already elite transfer class, Collins’ arrival could be the spark they’ve been missing — and fans will be watching closely to see how he fits into Coach Calhoun’s new-look roster.
