Lincoln -- University of Nebraska men’s basketball coach Tim Miles announced Monday morning that Dachon (pronounced Da-sean) Burke has joined the Husker basketball program after transferring from Robert Morris.
Burke, a 6-foot-4, 180-pound guard from Orange, N.J., will sit out the 2018-19 season, but will have two years of eligibility remaining beginning with the 2019-20 campaign. Burke looked at St. John’s, Pittsburgh and Marquette among others before choosing Nebraska.
Burke looks to continue the success NU has enjoyed with transfer guards, as Terran Petteway (2014), Andrew White III (2016) and James Palmer Jr. (2018) have all earned All-Big Ten accolades in their first season as a Husker after transferring.
