One day after announcing the transfer of sophomore forward Patrick Hazel from the Marquette men's basketball program, coach Buzz Williams announced the latest addition to the Golden Eagles' 2009 recruiting class.

Junior college All-American Darius Johnson-Odom will transfer to Marquette from Hutchinson Community College before next season, and will have three years of eligibility left. Johnson-Odom, a 6-foot-2, 190-pound guard, averaged 21.6 points, 5.2 rebounds and 4.6 assists per game last year for Hutchinson.

"We are extremely excited to add Darius to our 2009 recruiting class," Williams said in a university press release. "He fulfills a distinct need for our team on the perimeter."

Johnson-Odom joins a five-player recruiting class already ranked No. 2 in the nation by hoopscooponline.comand third by hoopmasters.com.
