It was back in May that we reported on a former Iowa Hawkeye point guard transferring to Nebraska. Ahron Ulis is a 6-3 190 junior from Chicago, Illinois.

During the 2022-23 season, Ulis averaged 6.1 points, 1.6 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game. Head basketball coach Fred Hoiberg tells Huskers.com that he’s excited to see Ahron contribute to the Cornhuskers this season.

“Ahron is a player we’ve gotten to know well having faced him five times over the last three seasons. Ahron brings a lot of valuable Big Ten experience to our program. He possesses a very competitive defensive mindset, while offensively he is a talented ball handler and playmaker who is good in transition.”

In 84 career games, he’s averaged 4.0, 1.6 rebounds and 1.9 assists per game. Find a photo gallery of his Iowa career below.
