“Hey, my name is Marcus Hill, and I’m a transfer from Bowling Green State University. Coach Kareem (Richardson) called me probably like the 2nd day I hit the Portal, and was showing interest even when they were in March Madness. They just kept talking to me. Coach Keatts was calling me a lot, showing a lot of interest. That’s big for a Head Coach to call you a lot like that.

Once I got on the visit, it was great vibes and jokes. I was a little quiet, but they got it out of me. It was family vibes. Toward the end, I knew I was probably going to commit. Definitely before I committed, I was watching the play style, and I wanted to play free, get into the lane, get my teammates open. Scoring, that’s my second thing, but I feel like I can get my teammates open.

I’m going to give my all to try to win a championship. Trying to win, win, win, and keep having a winning culture.”
