Eric Reibe breaks down early recruitment; talks Purdue, Michigan State, Maryland, and Providence

Eric Reibe is quickly turning into one of the top 2025 center prospects across the Eastern Seaboard. The 6-foot-10 post from Potomac (MD) Bullis School averaged 10.0 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 1.7 blocks while shooting around 58 percent from the field during the two DMV Live sessions.

“I can play inside or outside. My game is versatile for a big man,” Reibe told On3. “I can shoot three-pointers or drive to the middle; I have good post footwork and can create shots for others. The biggest adjustment initially was the speed and athleticism of the game over here. I really like Bam Adebayo’s game, I watch a lot of him and Dirk Nowitzki.”

On3 caught up with Eric Reibe from Potomac (MD) Bullis School to get an update on his recruitment.

Reibe talks recruitment

“I’m hearing the most right now from Purdue, Maryland, Providence, Michigan State, schools like that,” Reibe said.

Purdue: “They develop their players, especially their big men, really well. They developed Zach Edey into the Player of the Year. They’re a highly ranked team with a really great program.”

Michigan State: “They love how I play and think I fit very well with their program. The coaches are trying to get me up for a visit soon. They want to keep growing the relationship.”

Providence: “They are also a very good team and have a great campus and facilities. The coaches care very much about their players.”

Maryland: “They want me to go there really bad. They want to bring me on campus. The coaches like how I play, and they think they can integrate me into their system really well and make a home for me.”

In Reibe’s words

Eric Reibe is originally from Germany, where he played previously with the Orange Academy Ulm and BBU Ulm.

“I’m really good in the pick and roll, I can shoot it or create shots for others,” Reibe said. “My teammates can find me at all times. My dad, Carson Reibe, played professionally in German.

“I want to look for a school where I can have my freedom to play. A program that will allow me to push the ball and will give me some pick and pops. Where I can get it on the perimeter as well and do what I do. I’m able to play fast or to play slow, but I do want to go somewhere they play through their bigs.”
