John Bol brings elite efficiency and rim protection to UCF’s front line
In the 2025-26 season, John Bol emerged as a steady starting center for UCF, averaging 5.9 points and 5.5 rebounds while shooting about 71.7% from the field and ranking among the nation’s best inside-the-arc finishers. At 7-foot-2, he gives the Knights a real paint presence: efficient scoring, solid rebounding, and 1.1 blocks per game. The best part? He’s already proven he can stay on the floor, start every game, and impact winning without needing the ball—a very “clean fit” big for a team that wants length, rim protection, and low-drama production.
