CINCINNATI — The Bearcats are among Jalen Reece's top schools as the four-star 2025 guard out of Oak Ridge (Florida) cut his options down to seven candidates.

Cincinnati is in the mix with  Dayton, LSU, Ohio State, Penn State, Providence, and USF. According to 247Sports, Reece is ranked 67th nationally and 11th among point guards.

Joe Tipton reported the point guard has a love for Cincinnati as a place he calls home along with a nice relationship he's formed with Jizzle James. The 6-foot guard displays consistent seriscoring ability as an active guard at all three levels of the floor.

He can turn defense into offense quickly, a Cincinnati hallmark.
