Report: Rutgers Lands JUCO Point Guard Souf Mensah

Back in the fall, Steve Pikiell relentlessly pursued point guard Jose Alvarado and guard Geo Baker. While he landed Baker, he swung and missed on Alvarado.

That didn’t mean Pikiell was done. According to a report from Adam Zagoria, Rutgers has landed JUCO point guard Souf Mensah. Mensah plays for Marshalltown Community College in Iowa and weighs in at 210 pounds. He’s 6’2 and will eligible for the 2017-18 season.

Landing another point guard would allow both Nigel Johnson and Corey Sanders to play the scoring guard role and take pressure off of all three to bring the ball up the court.
