CINCINNATI — UC basketball has sent out a handful of offers recently across the 2025 and 2026 classes. Let's dive into all the action, starting with 2025 five-star combo guard Jalen Haralson out of Fishers (Indiana).

According to 247Sports, Haralson is the 10th-ranked player nationally and the second-best combo guard.

He holds over 15 offers from schools like Auburn and Florida State.
