Gonzaga walk-on Matt LangΒ announcedΒ via InstagramΒ he will be joining Arizona next season as a super senior graduate transfer and pursuing a masters degree.
"Now Iβm moving on to pursue my Masters of Accounting at U of Arizona, as well as play hoops, where Iβll be reunited with many former Zags," Lang wrote on Instagram. "Iβm excited for this next step, but will be a Zag for life."
Not only is UA coach Tommy Lloyd a longtime former Gonzaga assistant, but staffers Riccardo Fois, T.J. Benson, Ken Nakagawa and Rem Bakamus all have Gonzaga roots, as does UA center Oumar Ballo.
A 6-foot-3-inch guard from Portland, Lang has already played four seasons for the Zags, appearing in 17 games last season. He'll use his extra "COVID" year of eligibility (for participating during 2020-21) at Arizona next season.
