Coffeyville (Kan.) Community College center Blaise Keita has committed to play for the Nebraska men’s basketball program. Keita averaged 12.1 points and 8.1 rebounds and shot 75% from the free-throw line in his first eight games with the team. He’s 6-foot-10 with a 7-1 wingspan. Keita told Pro Insight, “I’m excited to go play for Nebraska and coach Fred Hoiberg, I wanted to commit early so that I could focus on my academics. They’ve been recruiting me hard since I’ve been at Coffeyville. I like how he develops players and his NBA background.” The 21-year-old Keita, a native of Mali, has to graduate from junior college, which means he won’t arrive at NU until summer 2022.
