Nebraska basketball announces signing of Taj DeGourville

Nebraska basketball officially announced the signing of Taj DeGourville on Friday afternoon. The University put out a press release confirming the move.

DeGourville comes to Lincoln after spending the last few seasons at San Diego State. He recorded 5.5 points per game to go along with three assists per game and 2.8 rebounds per game. He shot 37.1% from the field and 34.5% from beyond the arc. He played two seasons in total for the Aztecs.

Coach Fred Hoiberg discussed what DeGourville brings to the program in the press release.

“Taj’s combination of positional size, length and skillset makes him a valuable addition to our roster.” Hoiberg said. “He played two seasons at one of the best defensive programs in the country and has been a part of a winning culture at San Diego State.  He is a physical guard at 6-foot-5 with a 7-foot wingspan and can defend several spots on the floor.  He has a ton of upside offensively and his ability to get into the paint and create for others makes him a great fit with the players already on our roster.”

The program has one roster spot left to fill, but the roster looks to be in solid shape for now. The Huskers have been busy in the transfer portal, and Friday’s edition certainly added to it.
