The 6-foot-6 guard played 53 games in two years for Pitt, averaging 9.1 points and 3.1 assists, before transferring to Seton Hall. After just one year at Seton Hall, Odukale transferred to New Mexico State.

Odukale was a three-star prospect coming out of New York in 2020.

This is the latest guard transfer Gophers head coach Ben Johnson has brought in after losing Elijah Hawkins to the transfer portal earlier this spring. Former Oregon guard Brennan Rigsby joined the program in April.
