Tarris Reed played a couple of years at Michigan. But when Juwan Howard was fired, he went in portal and transferred to UCONN as he said he wanted more stricter environment that would help improve his game. I believe he left before May was selected to be Michigan's coach.
His 31 points and 27 rebounds in 35 minutes in their 11 point win against #15 seed Furman must have been some kind of record. I haven't seen much of Uconn this year but he must have improved significantly from the way I remember his play at Michigan. He was OK but not dominant there. Could be a big problem in the paint this evening for the Bruins.
