Should be a Solid Pick-up. Maybe not our first choice, but he is a True PG with Big Ten Starter Experience.
As someone noted elsewhere, All of our Pick-ups from the Portal played in the Post-Season last year!
Furthermore, all three will have two years of eligibility left. The only player that runs out of eligibility next season will be Keisei, if he returns.
(The last pick-up, Josiah Allick will have only one year. Mast, Williams & Ulis each have 2 years eligibility.)

Hawkeye transfers determine plans
Former Iowa basketball players Ahron Ulis and Josh Ogundele have found their new homes and one finds himself transferring within the Big Ten.
Ulis tape from both games he played vs Huskers last year. He's Jersey #1. We held him scoreless in both games (he did put up double digits vs 5 opponents last season.)
(I found where someone else had compiled the following stats
(I found where someone else had compiled the following stats
- only four times last season was Ulis held scoreless--two of those were against the Huskers;
- using <4 points as a standard for "disappearing," that happened eight times--again, 25% of those eight times were against the Huskers;
- he scored in double digits 5 times (against Ohio St. twice, Rutgers, Michigan St. and TCU);
- he had 0 or only 1 turnover in 26 games, he had 2 turnovers in 2 games, but he had 4 turnovers in 2 games (Ohio St. and Rutgers) and 6 turnovers in 2 games (Michigan St. and Iowa St.);
- he shot 69 three-pointers and was below 33.3% in only one game (1 for 5 against Wisconsin);
- his worst games from the floor were Auburn (1-5), Purdue (1-6), Rutgers (2-8), Penn St. (1-6), Nebraska (0-4), EIU (2-10) and Georgia Tech (0-4); and
- he played >20 minutes in all but 7 games, until his 1-5 from three performance against Wisconsin on February 22--after that his minutes went to 15, 19, 13, 17 and 16.
Huskers Sign Iowa Transfer Ahron Ulis - University of Nebraska
Nebraska Men's Basketball Coach Fred Hoiberg announced on Wednesday that former Iowa guard Ahron Ulis (pronounced Aaron YOU-liss) will transfer to Nebraska for the
huskers.com
Coach Fred Hoiberg on Ahron Ulis:
"Ahron is a player we've gotten to know well having faced him five times over the last three seasons," Hoiberg said. "He brings a lot of valuable Big Ten experience to our program. Ahron possesses a very competitive defensive mindset, while offensively he is a talented ball handler and playmaker who is good in transition. In 2022 when Iowa won the Big Ten Tournament, he shared his team's Top Playmaker Award. Ahron has been to three NCAA Tournaments and comes from a great Marian Catholic high school program in Chicago. We're excited about the winning mentality he will bring to our team."

You have two misses in your 1st sentence. P5 is a football term and you are also wrong about who was interested because he signed with a P6 team NU.
Uhlis wasn’t particularly known as a leader at IA. Maybe he’s got that trait but it’s not a role he was asked to play.
Scoring is going to have to come from Williams, Mast, Lawrence, Kesai. Who knows what we get out of Gary and Lloyd. Maybe there is not enough but no one is expecting Uhlis and Allick to light it up.
Regardless Uhlis is a good pickup. He can handle and defend. Without Uhlis our pg situation was a disaster. Welcome to NU Aaron.
I get where there is some lack of excitement and concern on Uhlis. But as jtf pointed out, what we need is a good ball handler to bring the ball up the court. We have a ton of guards and forwards that can shoot, esp if KT comes back. And Mast inside can score. So if he can just be a distrubuter and defensive stud, thats all we need. Theres some risk that he might be a lil like A verge and try to score to much, but if he buys into what we need..........he could fit in as a huge asset. Also, players sometimes flourish in diff systems, so theres a chance he responsds well to playing for FH more then the idiot from Iowa. Hes no guaranteed difference maker but hes a good guy to take a chance on and could really help this team.

In this film, he does a good job of being a distributer and team player. I like that about him. he wasnt brought in to score
