I am proud and excited to announce I will be joining the @HuskerHoops program and coach Hoiberg this coming Fall. Looking forward to step foot on campus in Lincoln and get to work. #GBR ud83cudf3d pic.twitter.com/Oizw9jGOcl

He will play his entire freshman season as a 17-year-old, and with Nebraska's decided lack of depth in the front court, his frame and near seven-foot wingspan likely give him an opportunity to establish himself in Nebraska's rotation. According to the ESPN report, Ouedraogo skipped a grade in elementary school and is a year young for his class.
