The New Orleans native had a strong senior season to end his run with the Cougars, averaging 10.6 points, 4.3 assists and 5.4 rebounds per game in the 2020-21 season.
Jarreau was named the 2020-21 American Athletic Conference Defensive Player of the Year and 2021 NCAA Tournament Midwest Regional Most Outstanding Player as he helped UH make a Final Four appearance.
During the quarterfinals round of the AAC Tournament in March, Jarreau tallied a 15-point, 10-assist and 10-rebound triple-double against Tulane, which made him only the seventh player to do that in program history and first since Bo Outlaw in 1993.
